Whoso keepeth his mouth and his tongue keepeth his soul from troubles.

The hearing ear, and the seeing eye, the Lord hath made even both of them.

House and riches are the inheritance of fathers: and a prudent wife is from the Lord.

The words of a man’s mouth are as deep waters, and the wellspring of wisdom as a flowing brook.

Children’s children are the crown of old men; and the glory of children are their fathers.

Righteous lips are the delight of kings; and they love him that speaketh right.

The eyes of the Lord are in every place, beholding the evil and the good.

In the fear of the Lord is strong confidence: and his children shall have a place of refuge.

Hope deferred maketh the heart sick: but when the desire cometh, it is a tree of life.

A man shall be commended according to his wisdom: but he that is of a perverse heart shall be despised.
