- For those who find me find life
and receive favor from the Lord. - My son, if your heart is wise,
then my heart will be glad indeed. - A gentle answer turns away wrath,
but a harsh word stirs up anger. - Better a little with righteousness
than much gain with injustice. - Speak up and judge fairly;
defend the rights of the poor and needy. - All hard work brings a profit,
but mere talk leads only to poverty. - Plans fail for lack of counsel,
but with many advisers they succeed. - When pride comes, then comes disgrace,
but with humility comes wisdom. - Commit to the Lord whatever you do,
and he will establish your plans. - Above all else, guard your heart,
for everything you do flows from it. - The blessing of the Lord brings wealth,
without painful toil for it. - The rich rule over the poor,
and the borrower is slave to the lender. - Let your eyes look straight ahead;
fix your gaze directly before you. - Do not wear yourself out to get rich;
do not trust your own cleverness. - The lips of fools bring them strife,
and their mouths invite a beating. - The wise in heart accept commands,
but a chattering fool comes to ruin. - Honor the Lord with your wealth,
with the firstfruits of all your crops. - I instruct you in the way of wisdom
and lead you along straight paths. - An honest witness does not deceive,
but a false witness pours out lies. - A gossip betrays a confidence,
but a trustworthy person keeps a secret. - Whoever conceals hatred with lying lips
and spreads slander is a fool. - What a person desires is unfailing love;
better to be poor than a liar. - Fools show their annoyance at once,
but the prudent overlook an insult. - Fools give full vent to their rage,
but the wise bring calm in the end. - Whoever pursues righteousness and love
finds life, prosperity and honor.
