14“BadH7451, badH7451,” saysH559 the buyerH7069, But when he goesH235 his wayH235, thenH227 he boastsH1984.15ThereH3426 is goldH2091, and an abundanceH7230 of 1jewelsH6443; But the lipsH8193 of knowledgeH1847 are a moreH637 preciousH3366 thingH3627.16TakeH3947 his garmentH899 whenH3588 he becomesH6148 suretyH6148 for a strangerH2114; And for foreignersH5237, holdH2254 him in pledgeH2254.172BreadH3899 obtained by falsehoodH8267 is sweetH6156 to a manH376, But afterwardH310 his mouthH6310 will be filledH4390 with gravelH2687.18PrepareH3559 3plansH4284 by consultationH6098, And 4makeH6213 warH4421 by wiseH8458 guidanceH8458.19He who 5goesH1980 about as a slandererH7400 revealsH1540 secretsH5475, Therefore do not associateH6148 with 67a gossipH6601H8193.
