13 Whoever denounces something obligates himself for the future. But whoever fears a lesson shall turn away in peace. Deceitful souls wander into sins. The just are merciful and compassionate.
14 The law of the wise is a fountain of life, so that he may turn aside from the ruin of death.
15 Good doctrine bestows grace. In the way of the contemptuous, there is a chasm.
16 The discerning do everything with counsel. But whoever is senseless discloses his stupidity.
17 The messenger of the impious will fall into evil. But a faithful ambassador shall prosper.
