7 Fine speech is not ¹becoming to a fool; still less is ²false speech to a prince.

8 ³A bribe is like a magic stone in the eyes of the one who gives it; wherever he turns he prospers.

9 Whoever ⁴covers an offense seeks love, but he who repeats a matter ⁵separates close friends.

10 A rebuke goes deeper into a man of understanding than a hundred blows into a fool.

11 An evil man seeks only rebellion, and ⁶a cruel messenger will be sent against him.

12 Let a man meet ⁷a she-bear robbed of her cubs ⁸rather than a fool in his folly.

13 If anyone ⁹returns evil for good, ¹⁰evil will not depart from his house.

14 The beginning of strife is like letting out water, so ¹¹quit before the quarrel breaks out.

15 He who ¹²justifies the wicked and he who ¹³condemns the righteous are both alike an abomination to the LORD.

16 Why should a fool have money in his hand ¹⁴to buy wisdom when he has no sense?

17 ¹⁵A 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 ¹⁶makes his door high seeks destruction.

20 ¹⁷A man of crooked heart does not discover good, and one with a dishonest tongue falls into calamity.

21 He who ¹⁸sires a fool gets himself sorrow, and the father of a fool has no joy.

22 ¹⁹A joyful heart is good medicine, but a crushed spirit ²⁰dries up the bones.

23 The wicked accepts ²¹a bribe in secret^a to ²²pervert the ways of justice.

24 ²³The discerning sets his face toward wisdom, but the eyes of a fool are on the ends of the earth.

25 ²⁴A foolish son is a grief to his father ²⁵and bitterness to ²⁶her who bore him.

26 ²⁷To impose a fine on a righteous man is not good, nor to strike the noble for their uprightness.

27 Whoever ²⁸restrains his words has knowledge, and he who has a cool spirit is a man of understanding.

28 Even a fool ²⁹who keeps silent is considered wise; when he closes his lips, he is deemed intelligent.
