5 He who mocks the poor taunts his Maker; He who rejoices at calamity will not go unpunished.
6 Grandchildren are the crown of old men, And the glory of sons is their fathers.
7 Excellent speech is not fitting for a fool, Much less are lying lips to a prince.
8 A bribe is a charm in the sight of its owner; Wherever he turns, he prospers.
9 He who conceals a transgression seeks love, But he who repeats a matter separates intimate friends.
10 A rebuke goes deeper into one who has understanding Than a hundred blows into a fool.
11 A rebellious man seeks only evil, So a cruel messenger will be sent against him.
