| Commit your work to the Lord, and your plans will be established. | Commit your deeds to Yahweh, and your plans shall 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 Yahweh with all your heart, and don’t lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight. |
| 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. | Don’t let kindness and truth forsake you. Bind them around your neck. Write them on the tablet of your heart. So you will find favor, 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 who covers an offense promotes love; but he who repeats a matter separates best friends. |
| A generous person will be enriched, and one who gives water will get water. | The liberal soul shall be made fat. He who waters shall be watered also himself. |
| Whoever pursues righteousness and kindness will find life and honor. | He who follows after righteousness and kindness finds life, righteousness, and honor. |
| 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 your heart with all diligence, for out of it is the wellspring of life. |
| Just as water reflects the face, so one human heart reflects another. | Like water reflects a face, so a man’s heart reflects the man. |
| A friend loves at all times, and kinsfolk are born to share adversity. | A friend loves at all times; and a brother is born for adversity. |
