8 You will throw up what little you’ve eaten,and your compliments will be wasted.
9 Don’t waste your breath on fools,for they will despise the wisest advice.
10 Don’t cheat your neighbor by moving the ancient boundary markers;don’t take the land of defenseless orphans.
11 For their Redeemer is strong;he himself will bring their charges against you.
12 Commit yourself to instruction;listen carefully to words of knowledge.
13 Don’t fail to discipline your children.The rod of punishment won’t kill them.
14 Physical disciplinemay well save them from death.
