10 No traspases el término antiguo, ni entres en la heredad de los huérfanos:
11 Porque el defensor de ellos es el Fuerte, el cual juzgará la causa de ellos contra ti.
12 Aplica tu corazón á la enseñanza, y tus oídos á las palabras de sabiduría.

14 Tú lo herirás con vara, y librarás su alma del infierno.
