- One who guards his mouth protects his life;
One who opens wide his lips comes to ruin. - The ransom of a person’s life is his wealth,
But the poor hears no rebuke. - Through overconfidence comes nothing but strife,
But wisdom is with those who receive counsel. - Wealth obtained from nothing dwindles,
But one who gathers by labor increases it. - Hope deferred makes the heart sick,
But desire fulfilled is a tree of life. - One who walks with wise people will be wise,
But a companion of fools will suffer harm.
