9
He that buildeth his house at other men's charges, is as he that gathereth himself stones to build in the winter.
10
The congregation of sinners is like tow heaped together, and the end of them is a flame of fire.
11
The way of sinners is made plain with stones, and in their end is hell, and darkness, and pains.
12
He that keepeth justice shall get the understanding thereof.
13
The perfection of the fear of God is wisdom and understanding.
14
He that is not wise in good, will not be taught.
15
But there is a wisdom that aboundeth in evil : and there is no understanding where there is bitterness.
16
The knowledge of a wise man shall abound like a flood, and his counsel continueth like a fountain of life.
17
The heart of a fool is like a broken vessel, and no wisdom at all shall it hold.
18
A man of sense will praise every wise word he shall hear, and will apply it to himself: the luxurious man hath heard it, and it shall displease him, and he will cast it behind his back.
19
The talking of a fool is like a burden in the way: but in the lips of the wise, grace shall be found.
