12 Hatred stirs up strifes, but love covers all sins.
13 In the lips of the prudent wisdom is found and is a rod unto the back of him that is void of understanding.
14 Wise men keep knowledge, but the mouth of the foolish is near unto calamity.
15 The rich man’s wealth is his strong city; the weakness of the poor is their poverty.
16 The work of the righteous is unto life, but the fruit of the wicked is for sin.
17 He is in the way of life that gives heed to chastening, but he that refuses reproof errs.
18 He that hides hatred has lying lips, and he that utters a slander, is a fool.
