A fool vents all his feelings, But a wise man holds them back. | A fool gives free rein to his anger, but a wise man bides his time and calms it. |
A man’s pride will bring him low, But the humble in spirit will retain honor. | A man’s pride will bring him low, but lowly souls will rise to honor. |
The fear of man brings a snare, But whoever trusts in the Lord shall be safe. | The fear of others will prove to be a snare, but whoever trusts in the Lord is secure. |
