12 You should not sit down at all with another man's wife, nor recline with her on a couch.
13 And you should not argue with her over wine, lest perhaps your heart may turn toward her, and by your emotion, you would be toppled into perdition.
14 You should not abandon an old friend. For a new one will not be similar to him.
15 A new friend is like new wine. It will grow old, and then you will enjoy drinking it.
16 You should not envy the glory and wealth of a sinner. For you do not know what may be his undoing in the future.
