16 Quítale su ropa al que salió por fiador del extraño; y tómale prenda [al que fía] la extraña.
17 Sabroso es al hombre el pan de mentira; mas después su boca será llena de cascajo.
18 Los pensamientos con el consejo se ordenan: y con industria se hace la guerra.
19 El que descubre el secreto, en chismes anda: no te entrometas, pues, con el que lisonjea con sus labios.
20 El que maldice á su padre ó á su madre, su lámpara será apagada en oscuridad tenebrosa.
