13 He who despises the word is held pledged to its terms, Yet he who fears the law's instruction, he shall fare well."
14 The law of the wise man is a fountain of life, To keep one away from the traps of death."
15 Goodness of intelligence produces favor, Yet the way of the treacherous brings calamity."
16 Every prudent man acts with knowledge, Yet the stupid one spreads folly."
17 A wicked messenger casts one into peril, Yet a faithful agent brings healing."
18 Destitution and dishonor come to one who renounces admonition, Yet he who observes reproof shall be glorified."
19 Yearning that comes to pass is congenial to the soul, Yet it is an abhorrence to the stupid to withdraw from evil."
20 He who walks with the wise becomes wise, Yet he who associates with the stupid is imperiled."
21 Peril pursues sinners, Yet good is the repayment of the righteous."
22 The good man leaves an allotment to his sons' sons, Yet the sinner's estate is stored up for the righteous one."
23 The tillage of the destitute may yield much food, Yet it is swept up when there is no judgment."
24 He who keeps back his club hates his son, Yet he who loves him is early to discipline him."
25 The righteous one is eating to his soul's satisfaction, Yet the belly of the wicked lacks food."
