હિંમતવાન માણસ પોતાનું દુ:ખ સહન કરી શકશે, પણ ઘાયલ મન કોણ વેઠી શકે?

13He who answers before he hears, that is folly and shame to him.

14A man’s spirit will sustain him in sickness, but a crushed spirit, who can bear?

15The heart of the discerning gets knowledge. The ear of the wise seeks knowledge.

16A man’s gift makes room for him, and brings him before great men.
