15 In the cheerfulness of the king's countenance, there is life. And his clemency is like belated rain.
16 Possess wisdom, for it is better than gold. And acquire prudence, for it is more precious than silver.
17 The path of the just turns away from evils. He who guards his soul preserves his way.
18 Arrogance precedes destruction. And the spirit is exalted before a fall.
19 It is better to be humbled with the meek, than to divide spoils with the arrogant.
