18 Sin profecía el pueblo será disipado: mas el que guarda la ley, bienaventurado él.
19 El siervo no se corregirá con palabras: porque entiende, mas no corresponde.
20 ¿Has visto hombre ligero en sus palabras? más esperanza hay del necio que de él.
21 El que regala á su siervo desde su niñez, á la postre será su hijo.
22 El hombre iracundo levanta contiendas; y el furioso muchas veces peca.
