14. A man who boasts and does not fulfill his promises is like clouds and wind, when rain does not follow.
15. By patience, a leader shall be appeased, and a soft tongue shall break hardness.
16. You have discovered honey; eat what is sufficient for you, lest perhaps, being filled up, you may vomit it.
17. Withdraw your feet from the house of your neighbor, lest, when he has had his fill, he may hate you.
18. A man who speaks false testimony against his neighbor is like a dart and a sword and a sharp arrow.
19. Whoever sets his hopes on the unfaithful in a day of anguish is like a rotten tooth and weary foot,
20. and like one who loosens his garment in cold weather. Whoever sings verses to a wicked heart is like vinegar on baking soda. Just like a moth to a garment, and a worm to wood, so too does the sadness of a man do harm to the heart.
