Commit your actions to the Lord, and your plans will succeed. | Commit thy works unto the Lord, and thy thoughts shall be established. |
Trust in the Lord with all your heart; do not depend on your own understanding. Seek his will in all you do, and he will show you which path to take. | Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths. |

Never let loyalty and kindness leave you! Tie them around your neck as a reminder. Write them deep within your heart. Then you will find favor with both God and people, and you will earn a good reputation. | Let not mercy and truth forsake thee: bind them about thy neck; write them upon the table of thine heart: So shalt thou find favour and good understanding in the sight of God and man. |
Love prospers when a fault is forgiven, but dwelling on it separates close friends. | He that covereth a transgression seeketh love; but he that repeateth a matter separateth very friends. |
Guard your heart above all else, for it determines the course of your life. | Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life. |
As a face is reflected in water, so the heart reflects the real person. | As in water face answereth to face, so the heart of man to man. |
Direct your children onto the right path, and when they are older, they will not leave it. | Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it. |
Whoever pursues righteousness and unfailing love will find life, righteousness, and honor. | He that followeth after righteousness and mercy findeth life, righteousness, and honour. |
The generous will prosper; those who refresh others will themselves be refreshed. | The liberal soul shall be made fat: and he that watereth shall be watered also himself. |
For the Lord grants wisdom! From his mouth come knowledge and understanding. | For the Lord giveth wisdom: out of his mouth cometh knowledge and understanding. |
