¹⁰ An evil wink gets you into trouble.
    And foolish chattering destroys you.

¹² Whoever makes fun of their neighbor has no sense.
    But the one who has understanding controls their tongue.

²⁰ There are lies in the hearts of those who plan evil.
    But there is joy for those who work to bring peace.

³⁰ A peaceful heart gives life to the body.
    But jealousy rots the bones.

⁷ When the way you live pleases the Lord,
    he makes even your enemies live at peace with you.

17 It is better to eat a dry crust of bread in peace and quiet
    than to eat a big dinner in a house full of fighting.

¹⁷ If you correct your children, they will give you peace.
    They will bring you the delights you desire.
