16. Number not yourself among the multitude of sinners: Remember that wrath will not wait.
17. Humble your soul greatly; For the punishment of the ungodly man is fire and the worm.
18. Change not a friend for a thing indifferent; Neither a true brother for the gold of Ophir.
19. Forgo not a wise and good wife; For her grace is above gold.
20. Entreat not evil a servant that works truly, Nor a hireling that gives you his life.
21. Let your soul love a wise servant; Defraud him not of liberty.
22. Hast you cattle? have an eye to them; And if they are profitable to you, let them stay by you.
23. Hast you children? correct them, And bow down their neck from their youth.
24. Hast you daughters? give heed to their body, And make not your face cheerful toward them.
25. Give your daughter in marriage, and you shall have accomplished a great matter: And give her to a man of understanding.
26. Hast you a wife after your mind? cast her not out: But trust not yourself to one that is hateful.
