8 Those who plan evil will receive trouble.Their cruel anger will come to an end.
9 Generous people will be blessed,because they share their food with the poor.
10 Get rid of the one who makes fun of wisdom.Then fighting, quarrels, and insults will stop.
11 Whoever loves pure thoughts and kind wordswill have even the king as a friend.
12 The Lord guards knowledge,but he destroys false words.
13 The lazy person says, “There’s a lion outside!I might get killed out in the street!”
14 The words of an unfaithful wife are like a deep trap.Those who make the Lord angry will get caught by them.
