- Those who control their tongue will have a long life;
opening your mouth can ruin everything. - The rich can pay a ransom for their lives,
but the poor won’t even get threatened. - Pride leads to conflict;
those who take advice are wise. - Wealth from get-rich-quick schemes quickly disappears;
wealth from hard work grows over time. - Hope deferred makes the heart sick,
but a dream fulfilled is a tree of life. - Walk with the wise and become wise;
associate with fools and get in trouble.
You know what I long for, Lord;
you hear my every sigh.
