Apply thine heart unto instruction, and thine ears to the words of knowledge.

By humility and the fear of the LORD are riches, and honour, and life.

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

The just man walketh in his integrity: his children are blessed after him.

Better is the poor that walketh in his integrity, than he that is perverse in his lips, and is a fool.

A fool hath no delight in understanding, but that his heart may discover itself.

The beginning of strife is as when one letteth out water: therefore leave off contention, before it be meddled with.

Commit thy works unto the LORD, and thy thoughts shall be established.

A soft answer turneth away wrath: but grievous words stir up anger.

In the mouth of the foolish is a rod of pride: but the lips of the wise shall preserve them.
