8 He who ¹digs a pit will fall into it, and ²a serpent will bite him who breaks through a wall.

9 ³He who quarries stones is hurt by them, and he who ⁴splits logs is endangered by them.

10 If the iron is blunt, and one does not sharpen the edge, he must use more strength, but wisdom helps one to succeed.^a

11 If the serpent bites before it is ⁵charmed, there is no advantage to the charmer.

12 The words of a wise man's mouth ⁶win him favor,^b but ⁷the lips of a fool consume him.

13 The beginning of the words of his mouth is foolishness, and the end of his talk is evil madness.

14 ⁸A fool multiplies words, though no man knows what is to be, and who can tell him ⁹what will be after him?

15 The toil of a fool wearies him, for he does not know ¹⁰the way to the city.

16 ¹¹Woe to you, O land, when your king is a child, and your princes feast in the morning!

17 Happy are you, O land, when your king is the son of the nobility, and your princes feast at the proper time, for strength, and not for ¹²drunkenness!

18 Through sloth the roof sinks in, and through indolence the house leaks.

19 Bread is made for laughter, and ¹³wine gladdens life, and ¹⁴money answers everything.

20 Even in your thoughts, ¹⁵do not curse the king, nor in your ¹⁶bedroom curse the rich, for a bird of the air will carry your voice, or some winged creature tell the matter.
