Proverbs

⁸And if you eat their food, you will get sick and be embarrassed. ⁹Don’t try to teach fools. They will make fun of your wise words. ¹⁰Never move an old property line, and don’t take land that belongs to orphans. ¹¹The Lord will be against you. He is powerful and protects orphans. ¹²Listen to your teacher and learn all you can. ¹³Always correct children when they need it. If you spank them, it will not kill them. ¹⁴In fact, you might save their lives.
