{18:15} Son, in your good works, you should not complain, and in giving anything, you should not cause grief with evil words.
{18:16} Is heat not refreshed by the dew? So also is a good word better than a gift.
{18:17} Behold, is a word not greater than a gift? But both are with a justified man.
{18:18} The foolish place blame sharply. And a gift from the undisciplined causes the eyes to fail.
{18:19} Before you judge, put justice in order within yourself, and before you speak, learn.
{18:20} Before you become sick, obtain medicine. And before you judge, examine yourself. And then you will find forgiveness in the sight of God.
{18:21} Before you become weak, humble yourself; and in a time of infirmity, show your way of life.
