25. As cold mayim to a weary nefesh, so is good news from a far country.
26. A tzaddik who falters before the rasha is like a muddy spring, and a polluted makor (fountain).
27. It is not tov to eat much devash; so for men to seek their own kavod is not glory.
28. He that hath no rule over his own ruach is like an ir that is broken down, and without a chomah (wall).
