11Can both freshG1099 water andG2532 saltG4089 water1 flowG1032 fromG1537 theG3588 sameG846 springG4077? 12MyG1473 brothersG80, canG3361G1410 a fig treeG4808 growG4160 olivesG1636, orG2228 a grapevineG288 bear figsG4810? NeitherG3777 can a saltG252 spring2 produceG4160 freshG1099 waterG5204.

13WhoG5101 is wiseG4680 andG2532 understandingG1990 amongG1722 youG4771? Let him show itG1166 byG1537 his goodG2570 conductG391, by deedsG2041 done inG1722 the humilityG4240 that comes from wisdomG4678. 14ButG1161 ifG1487 you harborG2192 bitterG4089 jealousyG2205 andG2532 selfish ambitionG2052 inG1722 yourG4771 heartsG2588, do notG3361 boastG2620 in it orG2532 denyG5574G2596 theG3588 truthG225.
