Im Kontext

28They that are free shall serve a servant that is wise: and a man that is prudent and well instructed will not murmur when he is reproved; and he that is ignorant, shall not be honoured.
29Extol not thyself in doing thy work, and linger not in the time of distress:
30Better is he that laboureth, and aboundeth in all things, than he that boasteth himself and wanteth bread.
31My son, keep thy soul in meekness, and give it honour according to its desert.
