16. Is the quarrels of the proud is the shedding of blood: and their cursing is a grievous hearing.
17. He that discloseth the secret of a friend loseth his credit, and shall never find a friend to his mind.
18. Love thy neighbour, and be joined to him with fidelity.
19. But if thou discover his secrets, follow no more after him.
20. For as a man that destroyeth his friend, so also is he that destroyeth the friendship of his neighbour.
21. And as one that letteth a bird go out of his hand, so hast thou let thy neighbour go, and thou shalt not get him again.
