8 ¹A bribe is like a magic stone in the eyes of the one who gives it; wherever he turns he prospers.

9 Whoever ²covers an offense seeks love, but he who repeats a matter ³separates 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 ⁴a cruel messenger will be sent against him.

12 Let a man meet ⁵a she-bear robbed of her cubs ⁶rather than a fool in his folly.

13 If anyone ⁷returns evil for good, ⁸evil will not depart from his house.

14 The beginning of strife is like letting out water, so ⁹quit before the quarrel breaks out.

15 He who ¹⁰justifies the wicked and he who ¹¹condemns the righteous are both alike an abomination to the LORD.

16 Why should a fool have money in his hand ¹²to buy wisdom when he has no sense?

17 ¹³A 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 ¹⁴makes his door high seeks destruction.

20 ¹⁵A man of crooked heart does not discover good, and one with a dishonest tongue falls into calamity.

21 He who ¹⁶sires a fool gets himself sorrow, and the father of a fool has no joy.

22 ¹⁷A joyful heart is good medicine, but a crushed spirit ¹⁸dries up the bones.

23 The wicked accepts ¹⁹a bribe in secret^a to ²⁰pervert the ways of justice.

24 ²¹The discerning sets his face toward wisdom, but the eyes of a fool are on the ends of the earth.

25 ²²A foolish son is a grief to his father ²³and bitterness to ²⁴her who bore him.

26 ²⁵To impose a fine on a righteous man is not good, nor to strike the noble for their uprightness.

27 Whoever ²⁶restrains his words has knowledge, and he who has a cool spirit is a man of understanding.

28 Even a fool ²⁷who keeps silent is considered wise; when he closes his lips, he is deemed intelligent.
