9 He that covereth a transgression seeketh love;but he that repeateth a matter separateth very friends.
10 A reproof entereth more into a wise manthan a hundred stripes into a fool.
11 An evil man seeketh only rebellion:therefore a cruel messenger shall be sent against him.
12 Let a bear robbed of her whelps meet a man,rather than a fool in his folly.
13 Whoso rewardeth evil for good,evil shall not depart from his house.
14 The beginning of strife is as when one letteth out water:therefore leave off contention, before it be meddled with.
15 He that justifieth the wicked,and he that condemneth the just,even they both are abomination to the Lord.
