The chapters of Solomon's wisdom sayings continue now: As the heavens are high and the earth is deep, so the hearts of kings are unsearchable... a word aptly spoken is like apples of gold in settings of silver... like an ear-ring of gold or an ornament of fine gold is a wise-man's rebuke to a listening ear... like the coolness of snow at harvest time is a trustworthy messenger to those who send him... if you find honey, eat just enough or else you will vomit... like a bad tooth or a lame foot is reliance on the unfaithful in times of trouble... give your enemy food and drink so as to heap coals of fire on his head...like cold water to a weary soul is good news from a distant land... like a city with broken down walls is a man who lacks self-control.
