12:10 Never trust thine enemy: for like as iron rusteth, so is his wickedness.
12:11 Though he humble himself, and go crouching, yet take good heed and beware of him, and thou shalt be unto him as if thou hadst wiped a lookingglass, and thou shalt know that his rust hath not been altogether wiped away.
12:12 Set him not by thee, lest, when he hath overthrown thee, he stand up in thy place; neither let him sit at thy right hand, lest he seek to take thy seat, and thou at the last remember my words, and be pricked therewith.
12:13 Who will pity a charmer that is bitten with a serpent, or any such as come nigh wild beasts?
12:14 So one that goeth to a sinner, and is defiled with him in his sins, who will pity?
12:15 For a while he will abide with thee, but if thou begin to fall, he will not tarry.
12:16 An enemy speaketh sweetly with his lips, but in his heart he imagineth how to throw thee into a pit: he will weep with his eyes, but if he find opportunity, he will not be satisfied with blood.
12:17 If adversity come upon thee, thou shalt find him there first; and though he pretend to help thee, yet shall he undermine thee.
12:18 He will shake his head, and clap his hands, and whisper much, and change his countenance.
13:1 He that toucheth pitch shall be defiled therewith; and he that hath fellowship with a proud man shall be like unto him.
