Honesty guides good people; dishonesty destroys treacherous people. | The integrity of the upright will guide them, But the perversity of the unfaithful will destroy them. |

Riches won’t help on the day of judgment, but right living can save you from death. | Riches do not profit in the day of wrath, But righteousness delivers from death. |
With their words, the godless destroy their friends, but knowledge will rescue the righteous. | The hypocrite with his mouth destroys his neighbor, But through knowledge the righteous will be delivered. |
A gossip goes around telling secrets, but those who are trustworthy can keep a confidence. | A talebearer reveals secrets, But he who is of a faithful spirit conceals a matter. |
Evil people get rich for the moment, but the reward of the godly will last. | The wicked man does deceptive work, But he who sows righteousness will have a sure reward. |
The generous will prosper; those who refresh others will themselves be refreshed. | The generous soul will be made rich, And he who waters will also be watered himself. |
