16 Do not esteem yourself more than your compatriots;remember, his wrath will not delay.
17 More and more, humble your pride;what awaits mortals is worms.
18 Do not barter a friend for money,or a true brother for the gold of Ophir.
19 Do not reject a sensible wife;a gracious wife is more precious than pearls.
20 Do not mistreat a servant who works faithfully,or laborers who devote themselves to their task.
21 Love wise servants as yourself;do not refuse them freedom.
22 Do you have livestock? Look after them;if they are dependable, keep them.
