13
Discipline your son and make his yoke heavy, so that you may not be offended by his shamelessness.
14
Better off poor, healthy, and fit than rich and afflicted in body.
15
Health and fitness are better than any gold, and a robust body than countless riches.
16
There is no wealth better than health of body, and no gladness above joy of heart.
17
Death is better than a life of misery, and eternal sleep than chronic sickness.
