but only in expressing his opinion. - Then you will understand righteousness and justice
and equity, every good path. - Fine speech is not becoming to a fool;

and to reflect only after making vows. - The memory of the righteous is a blessing,
but the name of the wicked will rot. - A fool despises his father's instruction,
but whoever heeds reproof is prudent.
