| اطْرَحْ عَلَى الرَّبِّ أَعْمَالَكَ فَتَثْبُتَ مَقَاصِدُكَ. | Commit your work to the Lord, and your plans will be established. |
| اتَّكِلْ عَلَى الرَّبِّ بِكُلِّ قَلْبِكَ، وَعَلَى فِطْنَتِكَ لَا تَعْتَمِدْ. اعْرِفِ الرَّبَّ فِي كُلِّ طُرُقِكَ وَهُوَ يُقَوِّمُ سُبُلَكَ. | Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths. |
| لَا تَدَعِ الرَّحْمَةَ وَالأَمَانَةَ تَتَخَلَّيَانِ عَنْكَ، بَلْ تَقَلَّدْهُمَا فِي عُنُقِكَ، وَاكْتُبْهُمَا عَلَى صَفْحَةِ قَلْبِكَ، فَتَحْظَى بِالرِّضَى وَحُسْنِ السِّيرَةِ فِي عُيُونِ اللهِ وَالنَّاسِ. | Let not steadfast love and faithfulness forsake you; bind them around your neck; write them on the tablet of your heart. So you will find favor and good success in the sight of God and man. |
| مَنْ يَصْفَحْ عَنِ الذَّنْبِ يَلْتَمِسْ الْمَحَبَّةَ، وَالوَاشِي يُفَرِّقُ بَيْنَ الأَصْدِقَاءِ الْحَمِيمِينَ. | Whoever covers an offense seeks love, but he who repeats a matter separates close friends. |
| النَّفْسُ السَّخِيَّةُ تَزْدَادُ ثَرَاءً، وَالْمُرْوِي يُرْوَى أَيْضاً. | Whoever brings blessing will be enriched, and one who waters will himself be watered. |
| مَنِ اتَّبَعَ الْعَدْلَ وَالرَّحْمَةَ يَلْقَى الْحَيَاةَ وَالْحَقَّ وَالْمَجْدَ. | Whoever pursues righteousness and kindness will find life, righteousness, and honor. |
| دَرِّبِ الْوَلَدَ بِمُقْتَضَى مَوَاهِبِهِ وَطَبِيعَتِهِ، فَمَتَى شَاخَ لَا يَمِيلُ عَنْهَا. | Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it. |
| كَمَا يَعْكِسُ الْمَاءُ صُورَةَ الْوَجْهِ، كَذَلِكَ يَعْكِسُ قَلْبُ الإِنْسَانِ جَوْهَرَهُ. | As in water face reflects face, so the heart of man reflects the man. |
| لأَنَّ الرَّبَّ يَهَبُ الْحِكْمَةَ، وَمِنْ فَمِهِ تَتَدَفَّقُ الْمَعْرِفَةُ وَالْفَهْمُ. | For the Lord gives wisdom; from his mouth come knowledge and understanding. |
| فَوْقَ كُلِّ حِرْصٍ احْفَظْ قَلْبَكَ لأَنَّ مِنْهُ تَنْبَثِقُ الْحَيَاةُ. | Keep your heart with all vigilance, for from it flow the springs of life. |
