Commit your work to the Lord, and your plans will be established. | Commit your actions to the Lord, and your plans will succeed. |
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 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. |
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. | 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. |
One who forgives an affront fosters friendship, but one who dwells on disputes will alienate a friend. | Love prospers when a fault is forgiven, but dwelling on it separates close friends. |
Keep your heart with all vigilance, for from it flow the springs of life. | Guard your heart above all else, for it determines the course of your life. |
Train children in the right way, and when old, they will not stray. | Direct your children onto the right path, and when they are older, they will not leave it. |
A generous person will be enriched, and one who gives water will get water. | The generous will prosper; those who refresh others will themselves be refreshed. |
Whoever pursues righteousness and kindness will find life and honor. | Whoever pursues righteousness and unfailing love will find life, righteousness, and honor. |
Just as water reflects the face, so one human heart reflects another. | As a face is reflected in water, so the heart reflects the real person. |
A friend loves at all times, and kinsfolk are born to share adversity. | A friend is always loyal, and a brother is born to help in time of need. |
