4. If the spirit of the ruler rises against you,Do not leave your post;For conciliation pacifies great offenses.
5. There is an evil I have seen under the sun,As an error proceeding from the ruler:
6. Folly is set in great dignity,While the rich sit in a lowly place.
7. I have seen servants on horses,While princes walk on the ground like servants.
8. He who digs a pit will fall into it,And whoever breaks through a wall will be bitten by a serpent.
