[No book] [1]Better is a dry morsel and quietness therewith, than a house full of feasting with strife.
[No book] [2]A servant that dealeth wisely shall have rule over a son that dealeth shamefully, and shall have part of the inheritance among the brethren.
[No book] [3]The refining pot is for silver, and the furnace for gold; but ‏𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇‎ trieth the hearts.
[No book] [4]A evil-doer giveth heed to wicked lips; and a liar giveth ear to a mischievous tongue.
[No book] [5]Whoso mocketh the poor blasphemeth his Maker; and he that is glad at calamity shall not be unpunished.
[No book] [6]Children's children are the crown of old men; and the glory of children are their fathers.
[No book] [7]Overbearing speech becometh not a churl; much less do lying lips a prince.
[No book] [8]A gift is as a precious stone in the eyes of him that hath it; whithersoever he turneth, he prospereth.
[No book] [9]He that covereth a transgression seeketh love; but he that harpeth on a matter estrangeth a familiar friend.
[No book] [10]A rebuke entereth deeper into a man of understanding than a hundred stripes into a fool.
[No book] [11]An rebellious man seeketh only evil; therefore a cruel messenger shall be sent against him.
[No book] [12]Let a bea robbed of her whelps meet a man, rather than a fool in his folly.
[No book] [13]Whoso rewardeth evil for good, evil shall not depart from his house.
[No book] [14]The beginning of strife is as when one letteth out water; therefore leave off contention, before the quarrel break out.
[No book] [15]He that justifieth the wicked, and he that condemneth the righteous, even they both are an abomination to ‏𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇‎.
[No book] [16]Wherefore is there a price in the hand of a fool to buy wisdom, seeing he hath no understanding?
[No book] [17]A friend loveth at all times, and a brother is born for adversity.
[No book] [18]A man void of understanding is he that striketh hands, and becometh surety in the presence of his neighbour.
[No book] [19]He loveth transgression that loveth strife; he that exalteth his gate seeketh destruction.
[No book] [20]He that hath a froward heart findeth no good; and he that hath a perverse tongue falleth into evil.
[No book] [21]He that begetteth a fool doeth it to his sorrow; and the father of a churl hath no joy.
[No book] [22]A merry heart is a good medicine; but a broken spirit drieth the bones.
[No book] [23]A wicked man taketh a gift out of the bosom, to pervert the ways of justice.
[No book] [24]Wisdom is before him that hath understanding; but the eyes of a fool are in the ends of the earth.
[No book] [25]A foolish son is vexation to his father, and bitterness to her that bore him.
[No book] [26]To punish also the righteous is not good, nor to strike the noble for their uprightness.
[No book] [27]He that spareth his words hath knowledge; and he that husbandeth his spirit is a man of discernment.
[No book] [28]Even a fool, when he holdeth his peace, is counted wise; and he that shutteth his lips is esteemed as a man of understanding.
