1. The sluggard is pelted with a dirty stone, and all men will speak of his disgrace.
2. The sluggard is pelted with the dung of oxen: and every one that toucheth him will shake his hands.
3. A son ill taught is the confusion of the father: and a foolish daughter shall be to his loss.
4. A wise daughter shall bring an inheritance to her husband: but she that confoundeth, becometh a disgrace to her father.
5. She that is bold shameth both her father and husband, and will not be inferior to the ungodly: and shall be disgraced by them both.
6. A tale out of time is like music in mourning: but the stripes and instruction of wisdom are never out of time.
7. He that teacheth a fool, is like one that glueth a potsherd together.
8. He that telleth a word to him that heareth not, is like one that waketh a man out of a deep sleep.
