13 Like the cold of snow on a day of harvest is a faithful messenger to those who send him, and the soul of his master is refreshed.
14 Like clouds and wind when there is no rain, so too is a man who boasts in a gift of deception.
15 With patience a ruler may be persuaded, and a soft tongue will break a bone.
16 If you find honey, eat what is sufficient for you, lest you have your fill of it and vomit it out.
17 Make your foot scarce in the house of your neighbor, lest he become weary of you and hate you.
18 Like a club and sword and a sharp arrow is a man who bears false witness against his neighbor.
19 A bad tooth and a lame foot is the trust of a faithless person in a time of trouble.
