³ Don’t let kindness and truth forsake you.
    Bind them around your neck.
    Write them on the tablet of your heart.
⁴ So you will find favor,
    and good understanding in the sight of God and man.

⁹ Debate your case with your neighbor,
    and don’t betray the confidence of another,
¹⁰     lest one who hears it put you to shame,
    and your bad reputation never depart.
