2 اذا ساد الصدّيقون فرح الشعب واذا تسلط الشرير يئن الشعب.	2 When just men increase, the people shall rejoice: when the wicked shall bear rule, the people shall mourn.

18 بلا رؤية يجمح الشعب. اما حافظ الشريعة فطوباه‎.	18 When prophecy shall fail, the people shall be scattered abroad: but he that keepeth the law is blessed.
19 بالكلام لا يؤدب العبد لانه يفهم ولا يعنى.	19 A slave will not be corrected by words: because he understandeth what thou sayest, and will not answer.
20 أرأيت انسان عجولا في كلامه. الرجاء بالجاهل اكثر من الرجاء به.	20 Hast thou seen a man hasty to speak? folly is rather to be looked for, than his amendment.
21 من فنّق عبده من حداثته ففي آخرته يصير منونا.	21 He that nourisheth his servant delicately from his childhood, afterwards shall find him stubborn.
