¹⁰ As an archer who wounds all,
    so is he who hires a fool
    or he who hires those who pass by.

²⁴ A malicious man disguises himself with his lips,
    but he harbors evil in his heart.
²⁵ When his speech is charming, don’t believe him,
    for there are seven abominations in his heart.
²⁶ His malice may be concealed by deception,
    but his wickedness will be exposed in the assembly.
²⁷ Whoever digs a pit shall fall into it.
    Whoever rolls a stone, it will come back on him.
²⁸ A lying tongue hates those it hurts;
    and a flattering mouth works ruin.

⁶ The wounds of a friend are faithful,
    although the kisses of an enemy are profuse.

⁵ A man who flatters his neighbor
    spreads a net for his feet.
