1. He that being often reproved hardeneth his neck Shall suddenly be destroyed, and that without remedy.
2. When the righteous are increased, the people rejoice; But when a wicked man beareth rule, the people sigh.
3. Whoso loveth wisdom rejoiceth his father; But he that keepeth company with harlots wasteth his substance.
4. The king by justice establisheth the land; But he that exacteth gifts overthroweth it.
5. A man that flattereth his neighbor Spreadeth a net for his steps.
6. In the transgression of an evil man there is a snare; But the righteous doth sing and rejoice.
