- He who gets wisdom loves his own soul; he who cherishes understanding prospers.
- A false witness will not go unpunished, and he who pours out lies will perish.
- It is not fitting for a fool to live in luxury-- how much worse for a slave to rule over princes!
- A man's wisdom gives him patience; it is to his glory to overlook an offense.
- A king's rage is like the roar of a lion, but his favor is like dew on the grass.
|
- He that getteth wisdom loveth his own soul: he that keepeth understanding shall find good.
- A false witness shall not be unpunished, and he that speaketh lies shall perish.
- Delight is not seemly for a fool; much less for a servant to have rule over princes.
- The discretion of a man deferreth his anger; and it is his glory to pass over a transgression.
- The king's wrath is as the roaring of a lion; but his favour is as dew upon the grass.
|
- A foolish son is his father's ruin, and a quarrelsome wife is like a constant dripping.
- Houses and wealth are inherited from parents, but a prudent wife is from the LORD.
- Laziness brings on deep sleep, and the shiftless man goes hungry.
- He who obeys instructions guards his life, but he who is contemptuous of his ways will die.
- He who is kind to the poor lends to the LORD, and he will reward him for what he has done.
|
- A foolish son is the calamity of his father: and the contentions of a wife are a continual dropping.
- House and riches are the inheritance of fathers: and a prudent wife is from the LORD.
- Slothfulness casteth into a deep sleep; and an idle soul shall suffer hunger.
- He that keepeth the commandment keepeth his own soul; but he that despiseth his ways shall die.
- He that hath pity upon the poor lendeth unto the LORD; and that which he hath given will he pay him again.
|
- Discipline your son, for in that there is hope; do not be a willing party to his death.
|
- Chasten thy son while there is hope, and let not thy soul spare for his crying.
