| A wise son brings joy to his father, but a foolish son brings grief to his mother. | A wise son makes a father glad, But a foolish son is a grief to his mother. |
| Eloquent lips are unsuited to a godless fool— how much worse lying lips to a ruler! | Excellent speech is not fitting for a fool, Much less are lying lips to a prince. |
| Who is wise? Let them realize these things. Who is discerning? Let them understand. The ways of the Lord are right; the righteous walk in them, but the rebellious stumble in them. | Whoever is wise, let him understand these things; Whoever is discerning, let him know them. For the ways of the Lord are right, And the righteous will walk in them, But wrongdoers will stumble in them. |
