10 By pride comes nothing but ^astrife,
But with the well-advised is wisdom. ‡

11 ^aWealth gained by dishonesty will be diminished,
But he who gathers by labor will increase. ‡

13 He who ^adespises the word will be destroyed,
But he who fears the commandment will be rewarded. ‡

14 ^aThe law of the wise is a fountain of life,
To turn one away from ^bthe snares of death. ‡
