so that they may keep you from the adulterous woman, from the loose woman who flatters you with her words.

The one who reproves another will in the end find more favor than the one who flatters with the tongue.

A servant who acts wisely will rule over an heir who behaves shamefully, and will share the inheritance along with the relatives.

Whoever shares with a thief is his own enemy; he hears the oath to testify, but does not talk.
