10. Whoso causeth the upright to go astray in an evil way, he shall fall himself into his own pit: but the perfect shall inherit good.
11. The rich man is wise in his own conceit; but the poor that hath understanding searcheth him out.
12. When the righteous triumph, there is great glory: but when the wicked rise, men hide themselves.
13. He that covereth his transgressions shall not prosper: but whoso confesseth and forsaketh them shall obtain mercy.
14. Happy is the man that feareth alway: but he that hardeneth his heart shall fall into mischief.
15. As a roaring lion, and a ranging bear; so is a wicked ruler over a poor people.
16. The prince that lacketh understanding is also a great oppressor: but he that hateth covetousness shall prolong his days.
17. A man that is laden with the blood of any person shall flee unto the pit; let no man stay him.
18. Whoso walketh uprightly shall be delivered: but he that is perverse in his ways shall fall at once.
