Proverbs 20:14-19

14“WorthlessH7451, worthlessH7451!” saysH559 the buyerH7069, but on the way outH235, he gloatsH1984.

15There isH3426 an abundanceH7230 of goldH2091 and rubiesH6443,but lipsH8193 of knowledgeH1847 are a rareH3366 treasureH3627.
16TakeH3947 the garmentH899 of the oneH3588 who posts securityH6148 for a strangerH2114;get collateralH2254 if it is forH1157 a foreignerH5237.1
17FoodH3899 gained by fraudH8267 is sweetH6156 to a manH376,but laterH310 his mouthH6310 is full ofH4390 gravelH2687.
18SetH3559 plansH4284 by consultationH6098,and wageH6213 warH4421 under sound guidanceH8458.
19He who revealsH1540 secretsH5475 is a constantH1980 gossipH7400;avoidH3808H6148 the one who babblesH66012 with his lipsH8193.
