Hear ye, wise men, my words, and ye learned, hearken to me:
Brethren, do not become children in sense: but in malice be children, and in sense be perfect.
A wise man shall hear and shall be wiser: and he that understandeth, shall possess governments.
I speak as to wise men: judge ye yourselves what I say.
And Eliu continued his discourse, and said:
For the ear trieth words, and the mouth discerneth meats by the taste.
