1. A workman that is a drunkard shall not become rich: He that despises small things shall fall by little and little.
2. Wine and women will make men of understanding to fall away: And he that cleaves to harlots will be the more reckless.
3. Moths and worms shall have him to heritage; And a reckless soul shall be taken away.
4. He that is hasty to trust is light-minded; And he that sins shall offend against his own soul.
5. He that makes merry in his heart shall be condemned:
6. And he that hates talk has the less wickedness.
7. Never repeat what is told you, And you shall fare never the worse.
