“8 A gift is as a precious stone in the eyes of him that hath it: whithersoever it turneth, it prospereth.9 He that covereth a transgression seeketh love; but he that repeateth a matter separateth very friends.10 A reproof entereth more into a wise man than an hundred stripes into a fool.11 An evil man seeketh only rebellion: therefore a cruel messenger shall be sent against him.12 Let a bear robbed of her whelps meet a man, rather than a fool in his folly.13 Whoso rewardeth evil for good, evil shall not depart from his house.14 The beginning of strife is as when one letteth out water: therefore leave off contention, before it be meddled with.”
