Commit your works to the Lord, And your plans will be established. | Entrust everything that you do to the Lord, and your plans will turn out to be successful. |
Trust in the Lord with all your heart And do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He will make your paths straight. | Trust wholeheartedly in the Lord rather than relying on your own intelligence. In everything you do, acknowledge him, and he will see that your paths are straight. |
Do not let kindness and truth leave you; Bind them around your neck, Write them on the tablet of your heart. So you will find favor and a good reputation In the sight of God and man. | Do not let kindness and fidelity leave you; fasten them around your neck and inscribe them on the tablet of your heart. Then you will gain favor and a good name in the sight of God and man. |
One who conceals an offense seeks love, But one who repeats a matter separates close friends. | One who forgives a misdeed fosters friendship, but he who divulges it separates good friends. |
Watch over your heart with all diligence, For from it flow the springs of life. | Guard your heart with all possible vigilance, for from it flow the wellsprings of life. |
Train up a child in the way he should go, Even when he grows older he will not abandon it. | Train a child in the way he should go, and he will not deviate from it, even in old age. |
One who pursues righteousness and loyalty Finds life, righteousness, and honor. | Whoever pursues righteousness and kindness will find life and honor too. |
A generous person will be prosperous, And one who gives others plenty of water will himself be given plenty. | A generous person will be enriched; he who refreshes others will also be refreshed. |
For the Lord gives wisdom; From His mouth come knowledge and understanding. | For the Lord himself is the one who bestows wisdom; from his mouth come forth knowledge and understanding. |
As in water a face reflects the face, So the heart of a person reflects the person. | Just as water reflects one’s face, so does one human heart reflect another. |
