6  Leave your simple ways,¹ and live,

and walk in the way of ^sinsight.”

15  The simple believes everything,

but the prudent ^ggives thought to his steps.

29  Whoever is ^sslow to anger has great understanding,

but he who has a hasty temper exalts folly.

29  A wicked man puts on a bold face,

but the upright ^bgives thought to¹ his ways.

4  ^bDo not toil to acquire wealth;

be discerning enough to desist.
