Commit your actions to the Lord, and your plans will succeed. | Commit your works to the Lord, And your thoughts will be established. |
Better to have little, with godliness, than to be rich and dishonest. | Better is a little with righteousness, Than vast revenues without justice. |
|
We can make our plans, but the Lord determines our steps. | A man’s heart 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 to get wisdom than gold! And to get understanding is to be chosen rather than silver. |
Those who listen to instruction will prosper; those who trust the Lord will be joyful. | He who heeds the word wisely will find good, And whoever trusts in the Lord, happy is he. |
Kind words are like honey— sweet to the soul and healthy for the body. | Pleasant words are like a honeycomb, Sweetness to the soul and health to the bones. |
A troublemaker plants seeds of strife; gossip separates the best of friends. | A perverse man sows strife, And a whisperer separates the best of friends. |
Better to be patient than powerful; better to have self-control than to conquer a city. | He who is slow to anger is better than the mighty, And he who rules his spirit than he who takes a city. |
