13 A talebearer revealeth secrets: but he that is of a faithful spirit concealeth the matter. {A talebearer: Heb. He that walketh, being a talebearer}
14 Where no counsel is, the people fall: but in the multitude of counsellors there is safety.
15 He that is surety for a stranger shall smart for it: and he that hateth suretiship is sure. {smart: Heb. be sore broken} {suretiship: Heb. those that strike hands}
16 A gracious woman retaineth honour: and strong men retain riches.
17 The merciful man doeth good to his own soul: but he that is cruel troubleth his own flesh.

13 qui ambulat fraudulenter revelat arcana qui autem fidelis est animi celat commissum
14 ubi non est gubernator populus corruet salus autem ubi multa consilia
15 adfligetur malo qui fidem facit pro extraneo qui autem cavet laqueos securus erit
16 mulier gratiosa inveniet gloriam et robusti habebunt divitias
17 benefacit animae suae vir misericors qui autem crudelis est et propinquos abicit
