| Grandchildren are the crowning glory of the aged; parents are the pride of their children. | Grandchildren are the crown of the old, And the glory of sons is their fathers. |
| Eloquent words are not fitting for a fool; even less are lies fitting for a ruler. | Excellent speech is not fitting for a fool, Much less are lying lips to a prince. |
| Love prospers when a fault is forgiven, but dwelling on it separates close friends. | One who conceals an offense seeks love, But one who repeats a matter separates close friends. |
| A friend is always loyal, and a brother is born to help in time of need. | A friend loves at all times, And a brother is born for adversity. |
| A cheerful heart is good medicine, but a broken spirit saps a person’s strength. | A joyful heart is good medicine, But a broken spirit dries up the bones. |
| Even fools are thought wise when they keep silent; with their mouths shut, they seem intelligent. | Even a fool, when he keeps silent, is considered wise; When he closes his lips, he is considered prudent. |
