- Pleasing words are like a honeycomb,
sweet to the soul and affording health to the body. - A perverse man sows strife,
and a tale-bearer destroys close friendships. - It is better to be a patient man rather than a warrior,
one who controls his temper rather than one who captures a city. - Grandchildren are the crown of the aged,
and the glory of children is their parents. - Fine words are not becoming to a fool,
and much less are false words to a noble. - One who forgives a misdeed fosters friendship,
but he who divulges it separates good friends. - A true friend is one at all times,
and a brother is born to render help in time of need. - A cheerful heart is excellent medicine,
but a crushed spirit dries up the bones. - Even a fool who keeps silent is considered wise;
if he closes his lips, he is regarded as intelligent. - A fool takes no pleasure in understanding
but only delights in expressing his own opinions. - The lips of a fool cause strife,
and his mouth provokes a flogging. - The whispers of a gossiper are tasty morsels
that corrode one’s inner being. - The name of the Lord is a tower of strength;
the upright man runs to it and finds refuge. - The wealth of a rich man is his stronghold;
he regards it as a high wall that cannot be scaled. - A man is haughty until disaster overtakes him,
but humility comes before honors. - A gift opens doors for the giver
and wins him access to the powerful. - The tongue has the power over life and death;
those who cherish it will enjoy its fruits. - One who finds a wife finds happiness
and receives favor from the Lord. - Some friends can lead us to ruin,
but a true friend is closer than a brother. - Whoever gains wisdom loves his own soul;
one who cherishes understanding will prosper. - A house and wealth are inherited from parents,
but a prudent wife is a gift from the Lord. - Whoever observes the commandments will live,
but the one who scorns them will die. - Many are the plans in a human mind,
but it is the purpose of the Lord that will prevail. - A man’s attraction is his kindness;
it is far better to be poor than to be a liar. - It is honorable to avoid strife,
but every fool is quarrelsome.
