14 If anyone loudly blesses their neighbour early in the morning,it will be taken as a curse.
15 A quarrelsome wife is like the drippingof a leaky roof in a rainstorm;
16 restraining her is like restraining the windor grasping oil with the hand.
17 As iron sharpens iron,so one person sharpens another.
18 The one who guards a fig-tree will eat its fruit,and whoever protects their master will be honoured.
19 As water reflects the face,so one’s life reflects the heart.
20 Death and Destruction are never satisfied,and neither are human eyes.
