{11:29} The affliction of an hour causes one to forget great delights, and in the end of a man is the uncovering of his works.
{11:30} You should not praise any man before death. For a man is known by his children.
{11:31} You should not bring every man into your house. For many are the snares of the deceitful.
{11:32} For as a stomach with a bad smell vomits, and as a partridge is led into a cage, and like a deer led into a snare, so also is the heart of the arrogant. And it is like a bystander watching his neighbor fall.
{11:33} For it lies in ambush, and then turns good into evil, and it will place the blame on the elect.
{11:34} From one spark, a great fire grows; and from one deceitful man, much blood flows. But a very sinful man lies in ambush for blood.
{11:35} Pay close attention to yourself before a harmful man, for he fabricates evils. Otherwise, he may lead over you a whispered reproach unceasingly.
{11:36} Receive a stranger to yourself, and he will overthrow you with a whirlwind, and he will alienate you from what is your very own.

{11:22} You should not spend time in the works of sinners. Instead, trust in God and remain in your own place.
{11:23} For it is easy, in the eyes of God, to make a pauper suddenly rich.
{11:24} The blessing of God hurries to reward the just man, and in a fleeting hour his advancement bears fruit.
{11:25} You should not say: “What do I need?” or, “What good will there be for me in this?”
{11:26} You should not say: “I have enough for myself,” or, “What could be worse than this?”
{11:27} In a day of good things, you should not be forgetful of misfortunes. And in a day of misfortunes, you should not be forgetful of good things.
{11:28} For it is easy, in the sight of God, on the day of one’s passing, to repay each one according to his ways.
