- Commit your work to the Lord,
and your plans will be established. - Happy are those who find wisdom,
and those who get understanding. - Lying lips conceal hatred,
and whoever utters slander is a fool. - For whoever finds me finds life
and obtains favor from the Lord. - Train children in the right way,
and when old, they will not stray. - In all toil there is profit,
but mere talk leads only to poverty. - Fools show their anger at once,
but the prudent ignore an insult. - A fool's lips bring strife,
and a fool's mouth invites a flogging. - Anxiety weighs down the human heart,
but a good word cheers it up. - Like a city breached, without walls,
is one who lacks self-control. - A capable wife who can find?
She is far more precious than jewels. - When pride comes, then comes disgrace;
but wisdom is with the humble. - Put away from you crooked speech,
and put devious talk far from you. - The blessing of the Lord makes rich,
and he adds no sorrow with it. - Keep straight the path of your feet,
and all your ways will be sure. - Wealth is a ransom for a person's life,
but the poor get no threats. - Righteousness exalts a nation,
but sin is a reproach to any people. - Speak out, judge righteously,
defend the rights of the poor and needy. - A fool gives full vent to anger,
but the wise quietly holds it back. - Without counsel, plans go wrong,
but with many advisers they succeed. - Whoever pursues righteousness and kindness
will find life and honor. - Just as water reflects the face,
so one human heart reflects another. - To get wisdom is to love oneself;
to keep understanding is to prosper. - A friend loves at all times,
and kinsfolk are born to share adversity. - A faithful witness does not lie,
but a false witness breathes out lies.
