A wise woman builds her house.
To do right honors God.
The wise man’s speech is respected.
The wise man looks ahead.
The common bond of godly people is good will.
The work of the godly will flourish.
The backslider gets bored with himself;
The godly man’s life is exiting.
A prudent man checks to see where he is going.
A wise man is cautious and avoids danger.
The wise man is crowned with knowledge.
To despise the poor is to sin.
To help the poor honors God
Blessed are those who pity them.
Those who plan GOOD shall be granted mercy and quietness.
Work brings profit;
Talk brings poverty!
Reverence for God gives a man deep strength;
His children have a place of refuge and security.
Reverence for God is a fountain of life,
Its waters keep a man from death.
A wise man controls his temper,
He knows that anger causes mistakes.
A relaxed attitude lengthens a man’s life;
Jealousy rots it away.
The godly have a refuge when they die,
But the wicked are crushed by their sins.
