1 Wine makes a mocker, and beer a reveler, and whoever errs concerning them shall never be wise.
2 The fear of the king is as the roaring of a lion; whoever provokes him to anger sins against his own soul.
3 It is an honour for a man to cease from strife, but every fool will be meddling.
4 The sluggard will not plow by reason of the cold; therefore he shall beg in harvest and have nothing.
