3 A stone is heavy and sand is weighty,
But a fool’s wrath is heavier than both of them.

4 Wrath is cruel and anger a torrent,
But ^awho is able to stand before jealousy? ‡

7 A satisfied soul¹ loathes the honeycomb,
But to a hungry soul every bitter thing is sweet. ‡

8 Like a bird that wanders from its nest
Is a man who wanders from his place.
