4 The king by judgment establishes the land, but he that receives gifts shall overthrow it.
5 The man that flatters his neighbour spreads a net for his feet.
6 In the transgression of an evil man there is a snare, but the righteous shall sing and rejoice.
7 The righteous considers the cause of the poor, but the wicked does not understand wisdom.
8 Scornful men bring a city into a snare, but wise men turn away wrath.
9 If a wise man contends with a foolish man, whether he rages or laughs, there is no rest.
10 The bloodthirsty hate the perfect, but the just seek his soul.
