He who winkshis eyes[does so] to deviseperversethings;He who compresseshis lipsbringsevilto pass.
He who winksthe eyecausestrouble,And a babblingfoolwill be ruined.
A worthlessmandigsup evil,Whilehis wordsare like scorchingfire.
A manof violenceenticeshis neighborAnd leadshim in a waythat is not good.
A grayheadis a crownof glory;It is foundin the wayof righteousness.
