| Do not forsake your friend or the friend of your parent; do not go to the house of your kindred in the day of your calamity. Better is a neighbor who is nearby than kindred who are far away. | Do not forsake your own friend or your father’s friend, Nor go to your brother’s house in the day of your calamity; Better is a neighbor nearby than a brother far away. |
| The clever see danger and hide; but the simple go on, and suffer for it. | A prudent man foresees evil and hides himself; The simple pass on and are punished. |
| Iron sharpens iron, and one person sharpens the wits of another. | As iron sharpens iron, So a man sharpens the countenance of his friend. |
| Just as water reflects the face, so one human heart reflects another. | As in water face reflects face, So a man’s heart reveals the man. |
