8. Woe to you, ungodly men, Which have forsaken the law of the Most High God!
9. If you⌃ be born, you⌃ shall be born to a curse; If you⌃ die, a curse shall be your portion.
10. All things that are of the earth shall go back to the earth: So the ungodly shall go from a curse to perdition.
11. The mourning of men is about their bodies: But the name of sinners being evil shall be blotted out.
12. Have regard to your name; For it continueth with you longer than a thousand great treasures of gold.
13. A good life has its number of days; And a good name continueth for ever.
14. My children, keep instruction in peace: But wisdom that is hid, and a treasure that is not seen, What profit is in them both?
15. Better is a man that hides his foolishness Than a man that hides his wisdom.
