He that giveth answer before he heareth, It is folly and shame unto him.
14
The spirit of a man will sustain his infirmity; But a broken spirit who can bear?
15
The heart of the prudent getteth knowledge; And the ear of the wise seeketh knowledge.
16
A man’s gift maketh room for him, And bringeth him before great men.
17
He that pleadeth his cause first seemeth just; But his neighbor cometh and searcheth him out.
18
The lot causeth contentions to cease, And parteth between the mighty.
