- 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 who gets wisdom loves his own soul; He who keeps understanding will find good.
- A false witness will not go unpunished, And he who tells lies will perish.
- Luxury is not fitting for a fool; Much less for a slave to rule over princes.
- A man's discretion makes him slow to anger, And it is his glory to overlook a transgression.
- The king's wrath is like the roaring of a lion, But his favor is like dew on 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 destruction to his father, And the contentions of a wife are a constant dripping.
- House and wealth are an inheritance from fathers, But a prudent wife is from the LORD.
- Laziness casts into a deep sleep, And an idle man will suffer hunger.
- He who keeps the commandment keeps his soul, But he who is careless of conduct will die.
- One who is gracious to a poor man lends to the LORD, And He will repay him for his good deed.
|
- Discipline your son, for in that there is hope; do not be a willing party to his death.
|
- Discipline your son while there is hope, And do not desire his death.
