12. In many things be as if thou wert ignorant, and hear in silence and withal seeking.
13. In the company of great men bake not upon thee: and when the ancients are present, speak not much.
14. Before a storm goeth lightning: and before shamefacedness goeth favour: and for thy reverence good grace shall come to thee.
15. And at the time of rising be not slack: but be first to run home to thy house, and there withdraw thyself, and there take thy pastime.
16. And do what thou hast a mind, but not in sin or proud speech.
17. And for all these things bless the Lord, that made thee, and that replenisheth thee with all his good things.
