| Commit your works to the Lord, And your thoughts 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 lean not on your own understanding; In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He shall direct your paths. | 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. |
| Let not mercy and truth forsake you; Bind them around your neck, Write them on the tablet of your heart, And so find favor and high esteem 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. |
| He who covers a transgression seeks love, But he who repeats a matter separates friends. | One who forgives a misdeed fosters friendship, but he who divulges it separates good friends. |
| Keep your heart with all diligence, For out of it spring the issues 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, And when he is old he will not depart from it. | Train a child in the way he should go, and he will not deviate from it, even in old age. |
| He who follows righteousness and mercy Finds life, righteousness, and honor. | Whoever pursues righteousness and kindness will find life and honor too. |
| The generous soul will be made rich, And he who waters will also be watered himself. | 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 face reflects face, So a man’s heart reveals the man. | Just as water reflects one’s face, so does one human heart reflect another. |
