8 He who 1digs a pit will fall into it, and 2a serpent will bite him who breaks through a wall.
9 3He who quarries stones is hurt by them, and he who 4splits logs is endangered by them.
10 If the iron is blunt, and one does not sharpen the edge, he must use more strength, but wisdom helps one to succeed.a
11 If the serpent bites before it is 5charmed, there is no advantage to the charmer.
12 The words of a wise man's mouth 6win him favor,b but 7the lips of a fool consume him.
13 The beginning of the words of his mouth is foolishness, and the end of his talk is evil madness.
14 8A fool multiplies words, though no man knows what is to be, and who can tell him 9what will be after him?
15 The toil of a fool wearies him, for he does not know 10the way to the city.
16 11Woe to you, O land, when your king is a child, and your princes feast in the morning!
17 Happy are you, O land, when your king is the son of the nobility, and your princes feast at the proper time, for strength, and not for 12drunkenness!
18 Through sloth the roof sinks in, and through indolence the house leaks.
