Do not believe anyone, even somebody that you know well.
You cannot be sure that your friend will always be honest with you.
Be careful what you say to your wife.
Be careful even when you are hugging her.
Sons think that their fathers are fools.
And daughters refuse to obey their mothers.
Wives quarrel with their husbands' mothers.
A man's enemies are the people who live in his own house now.
But as for me, I will watch for what the Lord will do.
I will wait for God, who saves me.
I know that he hears me.

Do not trust a neighbor;
    put no confidence in a friend.(A)
Even with the woman who lies in your embrace
    guard the words of your lips.

    a daughter rises up against her mother,(B)
a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law—
    a man’s enemies are the members of his own household.(C)

But as for me, I watch(D) in hope(E) for the Lord,
    I wait for God my Savior;
    my God will hear(F) me.
