6 The sin of the wicked is a trap,but the just run along joyfully.
7 The just care for the cause of the poor;the wicked do not understand such care.
8 Scoffers enflame the city,but the wise calm the fury.
9 If a wise person disputes with a fool,there is railing and ridicule but no resolution.
10 The bloodthirsty hate the blameless,but the upright seek his life.
11 Fools give vent to all their anger;but the wise, biding their time, control it.
12 If rulers listen to lying words,their servants all become wicked.
