³⁵ The wise will inherit glory,
    but shame will be the promotion of fools.

¹⁰ The fear of Yahweh is the beginning of wisdom.
    The knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.
¹¹ For by me your days will be multiplied.
    The years of your life will be increased.
¹² If you are wise, you are wise for yourself.
    If you mock, you alone will bear it.

¹⁵ The way of a fool is right in his own eyes,
    but he who is wise listens to counsel.
¹⁶ A fool shows his annoyance the same day,
    but one who overlooks an insult is prudent.

¹⁴ The teaching of the wise is a spring of life,
    to turn from the snares of death.

¹⁶ Every prudent man acts from knowledge,
    but a fool exposes folly.

¹⁹ Longing fulfilled is sweet to the soul,
    but fools detest turning from evil.

⁹ Fools mock at making atonement for sins,
    but among the upright there is good will.

¹⁶ A wise man fears and shuns evil,
    but the fool is hot headed and reckless.
¹⁷ He who is quick to become angry will commit folly,
    and a crafty man is hated.

²⁴ The crown of the wise is their riches,
    but the folly of fools crowns them with folly.
