| Whoever loves discipline loves knowledge, but whoever hates correction is stupid. | Whoso loveth instruction loveth knowledge: but he that hateth reproof is brutish. |
| Fools show their annoyance at once, but the prudent overlook an insult. | A fool's wrath is presently known: but a prudent man covereth shame. |
|
| Deceit is in the hearts of those who plot evil, but those who promote peace have joy. | Deceit is in the heart of them that imagine evil: but to the counsellors of peace is joy. |
| The Lord detests lying lips, but he delights in people who are trustworthy. | Lying lips are abomination to the Lord: but they that deal truly are his delight. |
| Diligent hands will rule, but laziness ends in forced labor. | The hand of the diligent shall bear rule: but the slothful shall be under tribute. |
| Anxiety weighs down the heart, but a kind word cheers it up. | Heaviness in the heart of man maketh it stoop: but a good word maketh it glad. |
