Speak not in the ears of a fool: for he will despise the wisdom of thy words.

He that hath a bountiful eye shall be blessed; for he giveth of his bread to the poor.

To do justice and judgment is more acceptable to the Lord than sacrifice.

Even a child is known by his doings, whether his work be pure, and whether it be right.

Hear counsel, and receive instruction, that thou mayest be wise in thy latter end.

He that answereth a matter before he heareth it, it is folly and shame unto him.

He that covereth a transgression seeketh love; but he that repeateth a matter separateth very friends.

By mercy and truth iniquity is purged: and by the fear of the Lord men depart from evil.

The ear that heareth the reproof of life abideth among the wise.

A faithful witness will not lie: but a false witness will utter lies.
