{8:9} You should not despise the discourse of those who are old and wise; instead, ponder their proverbs.
{8:10} For from them, you will learn wisdom and intelligent doctrine, so as to serve great men without blame.
{8:11} Do not allow the discourse of your elders to pass you by. For they have learned from their fathers.
{8:12} And from them, you will learn understanding, and you will learn what response to give in a time of necessity.
{8:13} You should not kindle the coals of sinners by arguing with them. For you might be scorched by the flame from the fire of their sins.
{8:14} You should not stand against the face of a contemptuous person, otherwise he may sit down as if waiting in ambush against your words.
