Better is a poor one walking in his integrity than one crooked of lips and he is a fool.

Also, without knowledge, a soul is not good, and one hasty of foot sins.

The foolishness of a person distorts his way, and against יהוה his heart rages.

Wealth adds many friends, but a poor one from his friend is separated.

A false witness will not go free, and one who breathes lies will not escape.

Many seek the face of a generous one, and every friend of a man is a giver.

All the brothers of a poor one hate him; how much more his friends have gone far from him; he pursues words, they are not for him.

One who acquires understanding loves his soul; one who keeps discernment will find good.

A false witness will not go free, and one who breathes lies will perish.

Pleasure is not fitting for a fool; how much less for a servant to rule over princes.

The understanding of a person makes his anger long, and his glory is to overlook transgression.

The rage of a king is like the roaring of a lion, and his favor is like dew on grass.

A foolish son is ruin to his father, and a dripping leak, the disputes of a wife.

House and wealth are an inheritance from fathers, but from יהוה a discerning wife.

Sloth causes deep sleep, and an idle soul will hunger.

One who guards a command guards his soul; one who despises his ways will die.

One who lends to יהוה is gracious to the poor, and his reward יהוה will repay him.

Discipline your son, for there is hope, and to his death do not let your soul aspire.

A great wrath is borne by one who receives punishment; if you save him, you add more.

Hear counsel and receive instruction, so that you may be wise in your latter end.

Many plans are in the heart of a person, but the counsel of יהוה, that will stand.

The desire of a person is his kindness, and better is a poor one than a man of lies.

The fear of יהוה leads to life, and one who is satisfied will abide; he will not be visited by evil.

The lazy one hides his hand in the dish; he will not even bring it back to his mouth.

Strike a scoffer, and the simple will become cautious; and rebuke a wise person, he will understand knowledge.

One who devastates a father, he drives away a mother; a son who shames and disgraces.

Cease, my son, from hearing instruction, to stray from the words of knowledge.

A wicked witness mocks justice, and the mouth of the wicked swallows iniquity.

Judgments are prepared for scoffers, and beatings for the back of fools.
