9 Better to live alone in a tumbledown shackthan share a mansion with a nagging spouse.
10 Wicked souls love to make trouble;they feel nothing for friends and neighbors.
11 Simpletons only learn the hard way,but the wise learn by listening.
12 A God-loyal person will see right through the wickedand undo the evil they’ve planned.
13 If you stop your ears to the cries of the poor,your cries will go unheard, unanswered.
14 A quietly given gift soothes an irritable person;a heartfelt present cools a hot temper.
15 Good people celebrate when justice triumphs,but for the workers of evil it’s a bad day.
