A man shall be satisfied with good by the fruit of his mouth: and the recompence of a man’s hands shall be rendered unto him.

As righteousness tendeth to life: so he that pursueth evil pursueth it to his own death.

He that gathereth in summer is a wise son: but he that sleepeth in harvest is a son that causeth shame.

If thou be wise, thou shalt be wise for thyself: but if thou scornest, thou alone shalt bear it.

For my (Wisdom) mouth shall speak truth; and wickedness is an abomination to my lips.

For the commandment is a lamp; and the law is light; and reproofs of instruction are the way of life:

Let thy fountain be blessed: and rejoice with the wife of thy youth.

Exalt her (Wisdom), and she shall promote thee: she shall bring thee to honour, when thou dost embrace her.

Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the Lord, and depart from evil.

He (God) keepeth the paths of judgment, and preserveth the way of His saints.
