Better is a neighbor who is near than a brother who is far away. |
| A prudent person sees evil and hides himself; But the naive proceed, and pay the penalty. | The prudent sees danger and hides himself, but the simple go on and suffer for it. |
| As iron sharpens iron, So one person sharpens another. | Iron sharpens iron, and one man sharpens another. |
| As in water a face reflects the face, So the heart of a person reflects the person. | As in water face reflects face, so the heart of man reflects the man. |
