¹² Hate starts quarrels,
but love covers every wrong.

¹⁰ A righteous person cares ⌞even⌟ about the life of his animals,
but the compassion of wicked people is ⌞nothing but⌟ cruelty.

¹⁷ Better to have a dish of vegetables where there is love
than juicy steaks where there is hate.

⁹ Whoever forgives an offense seeks love,
but whoever keeps bringing up the issue separates the closest of friends.

¹⁷ A friend always loves,
and a brother is born to share trouble.
