| Commit your works to the Lord, And your thoughts will be established. | Commit your work to the Lord, and your plans will be established. |
| 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 in the Lord with all your heart, and do not rely on your own insight. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths. |
| 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 loyalty and faithfulness forsake you; bind them around your neck, write them on the tablet of your heart. So you will find favor and good repute in the sight of God and of people. |
| He who covers a transgression seeks love, But he who repeats a matter separates friends. | One who forgives an affront fosters friendship, but one who dwells on disputes will alienate a friend. |
| Keep your heart with all diligence, For out of it spring the issues of life. | Keep your heart with all vigilance, for from it flow the springs of life. |
| Train up a child in the way he should go, And when he is old he will not depart from it. | Train children in the right way, and when old, they will not stray. |
| The generous soul will be made rich, And he who waters will also be watered himself. | A generous person will be enriched, and one who gives water will get water. |
| He who follows righteousness and mercy Finds life, righteousness, and honor. | Whoever pursues righteousness and kindness will find life and honor. |
| As in water face reflects face, So a man’s heart reveals the man. | Just as water reflects the face, so one human heart reflects another. |
| A friend loves at all times, And a brother is born for adversity. | A friend loves at all times, and kinsfolk are born to share adversity. |
