- Do not forsake your friend or the friend of your father,
and do not run to your brother’s house when troubles befall you;
far better is a friend nearby
than a brother who is far away. - The prudent man perceives danger and seeks shelter,
while the simple continue forward and pay the penalty. - As iron sharpens iron,
so a man sharpens the wits of his neighbor. - Just as water reflects one’s face,
so does one human heart reflect another. - When anyone turns a deaf ear to the law,
even his prayer is detestable. - No one who conceals his transgressions will prosper,
but one who confesses and renounces them will obtain mercy. - A fool gives free rein to his anger,
but a wise man bides his time and calms it. - A man’s pride will bring him low,
but lowly souls will rise to honor. - The fear of others will prove to be a snare,
but whoever trusts in the Lord is secure. - Every word of God has proved to be true;
he is a shield to those who trust in him. - Keep falsehood and lying far from me;
give me neither poverty nor riches,
but simply provide me with the food that I need.
