Commit your actions to the Lord, and your plans will succeed. | Commit your works to the Lord, And your plans will be established. |
Better to have little, with godliness, than to be rich and dishonest. | Better is a little with righteousness Than great income with injustice. |
|
We can make our plans, but the Lord determines our steps. | The mind of a person plans his way, But the Lord directs his steps. |
How much better to get wisdom than gold, and good judgment than silver! | How much better it is to get wisdom than gold! And to get understanding is to be chosen above silver. |
Those who listen to instruction will prosper; those who trust the Lord will be joyful. | One who pays attention to the word will find good, And blessed is one who trusts in the Lord. |
Kind words are like honey— sweet to the soul and healthy for the body. | Pleasant words are a honeycomb, Sweet to the soul and healing to the bones. |
A troublemaker plants seeds of strife; gossip separates the best of friends. | A perverse person spreads strife, And a slanderer separates close friends. |
Better to be patient than powerful; better to have self-control than to conquer a city. | One who is slow to anger is better than the mighty, And one who rules his spirit, than one who captures a city. |
