| Commit your work to the Lord, and your plans will be established. | Commit thy works unto the Lord, and thy thoughts shall be established. |
| 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. | 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. |
|
| 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. | 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. |
| One who forgives an affront fosters friendship, but one who dwells on disputes will alienate a friend. | He that covereth a transgression seeketh love; but he that repeateth a matter separateth very friends. |
| A generous person will be enriched, and one who gives water will get water. | The liberal soul shall be made fat: and he that watereth shall be watered also himself. |
| Whoever pursues righteousness and kindness will find life and honor. | He that followeth after righteousness and mercy findeth life, righteousness, and honour. |
| Train children in the right way, and when old, they will not stray. | Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it. |
| Keep your heart with all vigilance, for from it flow the springs of life. | Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life. |
| Just as water reflects the face, so one human heart reflects another. | As in water face answereth to face, so the heart of man to man. |
| A friend loves at all times, and kinsfolk are born to share adversity. | A friend loveth at all times, and a brother is born for adversity. |
