13 Even, in laughter, the heart may be in pain, and, the latter end of gladness, be grief.
14 With his own ways, shall be filled the backslider in heart, and, from himself, shall a good man [be satisfied].
15 The simple, believeth every word, but, the prudent, looketh well to his going.
16 A wise man, feareth, and avoideth evil, but, a dullard, is haughty and confident.
17 The impatient, worketh folly, and, a man of wicked devices, is hated.
18 The simple inherit folly, but, the shrewd, crowneth himself with knowledge.
