¹³ He that giveth answer before he heareth,
It is folly and shame unto him.

² Also, ^[a]that the soul be without knowledge is not good;
And he that hasteth with his feet ^[b]sinneth.

⁵ The thoughts of the diligent tend only to plenteousness;
But every one that is hasty hasteth only to want.

⁷ For better is it that it be said unto thee, Come up hither,
Than that thou shouldest be put lower in the presence of the prince,
Whom thine eyes have seen.
⁸ Go not forth hastily to strive,
^[a]Lest thou know not what to do in the end thereof,
When thy neighbor hath put thee to shame.

²⁰ A faithful man shall abound with blessings;
But he that maketh haste to be rich shall not be unpunished.
