If you have gathered nothing in your youth, how then will you find anything in your old age?
4
How beautiful is sound judgment in gray-haired women and finding good advice in elderly men!
5
How beautiful is wisdom in the aged and thought and counsel in those who are respectable!
6
Experience is the crown of the aged and respecting the Lord is their claim to fame.
7
In my heart, I would consider nine conditions to be happy, and I'll name a tenth with my tongue— people who are made glad by their children, and who live to see the downfall of their enemies.
8
Happy are those who live with sensible wives, who don't slip with their tongue, and who haven't been a servant to one inferior to themselves.
9
Happy is the one who has gained good sense and who is passing this along to listening ears.
10
How great is one who finds Wisdom, but no one does better than the one who fears the Lord.
11
Fear of the Lord surpasses everything; those who possess it are incomparable.
Evil and good women
13 Any wound, but not a wound to the heart; and any wickedness, but not a woman's wickedness!
