| Commit your deeds to Yahweh, and your plans shall succeed. | Commit your work to the Lord, and your plans will be established. |

In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight. | 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. |

So you will find favor, and good understanding 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. |

| The liberal soul shall be made fat. He who waters shall be watered also himself. | A generous person will be enriched, and one who gives water will get water. |

| Keep your heart with all diligence, for out of it is the wellspring of life. | Keep your heart with all vigilance, for from it flow the springs of life. |
| Like water reflects a face, so a man’s heart reflects 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. |
