11 An evil man seeks only rebellion, and ¹a cruel messenger will be sent against him.

12 Let a man meet ²a she-bear robbed of her cubs ³rather than a fool in his folly.

13 If anyone ⁴returns evil for good, ⁵evil will not depart from his house.

14 The beginning of strife is like letting out water, so ⁶quit before the quarrel breaks out.

15 He who ⁷justifies the wicked and he who ⁸condemns the righteous are both alike an abomination to the LORD.

16 Why should a fool have money in his hand ⁹to buy wisdom when he has no sense?

17 ¹⁰A friend loves at all times, and a brother is born for adversity.

18 One who lacks sense gives a pledge and puts up security in the presence of his neighbor.

19 Whoever loves transgression loves strife; he who ¹¹makes his door high seeks destruction.

20 ¹²A man of crooked heart does not discover good, and one with a dishonest tongue falls into calamity.

21 He who ¹³sires a fool gets himself sorrow, and the father of a fool has no joy.
