12 There is a derech (road) which seemeth yashar (right) unto an ish, but the acharit (latter end, future) thereof are the drakhim of mavet.
13 Even in sekhok (laughter) the lev is sad, and the acharit (latter end) of that simchah is grief.
14 The sug (backslider, faithless one) in lev is filled with his own drakhim (roads), but an ish tov shall be satisfied from above himself.
15 The naive believeth every davar, but the prudent looketh with care to his steps.
16 A chacham feareth, and departeth from rah, but the kesil throweth off restraint and is arrogantly reckless.
17 He that is quicktempered dealeth folly, and an ish mezimot (a man of crafty schemes) is hated.
18 The naive inherit folly, but the prudent are crowned with da'as.
