¹³ If one gives answer before he hears,
    it is his folly and shame.

² It is not good for a man to be without knowledge,
    and he who makes haste with his feet misses his way.

⁵ The plans of the diligent lead surely to abundance,
    but every one who is hasty comes only to want.

⁷ for it is better to be told, “Come up here,”
    than to be put lower in the presence of the prince.

²⁰ A faithful man will abound with blessings,
    but he who hastens to be rich will not go unpunished.
