14. The wrath of a king is as messengers of death: and the wise man will pacify it.
15. In the cheerfulness of the king's countenance is life: and his clemency is like the latter rain.
16. Get wisdom, because it is better than gold: and purchase prudence, for it is more precious than silver.
17. The path of the just departeth from evils: he that keepeth his soul keepeth his way.
18. Pride goeth before destruction: and the spirit is lifted up before a fall.
