6 Children's children are the crown of old men; and the glory of children are their fathers. H · G · S  their fathers

13 Whoso rewardeth evil for good, evil shall not depart from his house. H · G · S  
14 The beginning of strife is as when one letteth out water: therefore leave off contention, before it be meddled with. H · G · S  
15 He that justifieth the wicked, and he that condemneth the just, even they both are abomination to the LORD. H · G · S  
16 Wherefore is there a price in the hand of a fool to get wisdom, seeing he hath no heart to it? H · G · S

18 A man void of understanding striketh hands, and becometh surety in the presence of his friend. H · G · S

20 He that hath a froward heart findeth no good: and he that hath a perverse tongue falleth into mischief. H · G · S  froward
21 He that begetteth a fool doeth it to his sorrow: and the father of a fool hath no joy. H · G · S  
22 A merry heart doeth good like a medicine: but a broken spirit drieth the bones. H · G · S  like a medicine
23 A wicked man taketh a gift out of the bosom to pervert the ways of judgment. H · G · S  
24 Wisdom is before him that hath understanding; but the eyes of a fool are in the ends of the earth. H · G · S  
25 A foolish son is a grief to his father, and bitterness to her that bare him. H · G · S  
26 Also to punish the just is not good, nor to strike princes for equity. H · G · S  
27 He that hath knowledge spareth his words: and a man of understanding is of an excellent spirit. H · G · S  spareth his words excellent spirit
28 Even a fool, when he holdeth his peace, is counted wise: and he that shutteth his lips is esteemed a man of understanding.

H · G · S
