7 For like something stuck in the throat is that food.“Eat and drink,” they say to you,but their hearts are not with you;
8 The little you have eaten you will vomit up,and you will have wasted your agreeable words.
9 Do not speak in the hearing of fools;they will despise the wisdom of your words.
10 Do not remove the ancient landmark,nor invade the fields of the fatherless;
11 For their redeemer is strong;he will defend their cause against you.
12 Apply your heart to instruction,and your ear to words of knowledge.
13 Do not withhold discipline from youths;if you beat them with the rod, they will not die.
