1 Thou shalt not boast upon the day of the morrow, for thou shalt not know what a day shall bring forth.

2 A stranger shall praise thee, and not thy mouth; a stranger, and not thy lips.

3 A stone is heavy and sand a burden, and the wrath of the foolish one heavy more than they two.

4 Wrath is cruelty, and anger an overflowing; and who shall stand before jealousy?

5 Naked rebuke is good above secret love.

6 Faithful the wounds of a friend; and abundant the kisses of an enemy.
