| In the transgression of an evil man there is a snare: but the righteous doth sing and rejoice.
| The righteous considereth the cause of the poor: but the wicked regardeth not to know it.
| Scornful men bring a city into a snare: but wise men turn away wrath.

| He that delicately bringeth up his servant from a child shall have him at length become his son.
| An angry man stirreth up strife, and a furious man aboundeth in transgression.
| A man's pride shall bring him low: but honor shall uphold the humble in spirit.
| Whoever is partner with a thief, hateth his own soul: he heareth cursing, and discloseth it not.
