5 The one who mocks the poor insults his Creator;whoever rejoices over disaster will not go unpunished.
6 Grandchildren are like a crown to the elderly,and the glory of children is their parents.
7 Excessive speech is not becoming for a fool;how much less are lies for a ruler!
8 A bribe works like a charm for the one who offers it;in whatever he does he succeeds.
9 The one who forgives an offense seeks love,but whoever repeats a matter separates close friends.
10 A rebuke makes a greater impression on a discerning personthan a hundred blows on a fool.
11 An evil person seeks only rebellion,and so a cruel messenger will be sent against him.
