13 As the cold of snow in the time of harvest, So is a faithful messenger to those who send him; For he refreshes the soul of his masters.
14 As clouds and wind without rain, So is he who boasts of gifts deceptively.
15 By patience a ruler is persuaded. A soft tongue breaks the bone.
16 Have you found honey? Eat as much as is sufficient for you, Lest you eat too much, and vomit it.
17 Let your foot be seldom in your neighbor's house, Lest he be weary of you, and hate you.
