1 Wine is a mocker, strong drink a brawler. Whoever is led astray by them is unwise.
2 The terror of a king is like a lion’s growl. Whoever provokes him endangers his life.
3 It is honor for one to resolve a dispute, yet every fool quarrels.
4 A slacker will not plow in season, so at harvest he looks but finds nothing.
5 The intent of a man’s heart is deep water, but a man of insight draws it out.
