Every word of God is pure: he is a shield unto them that put their trust in him.

Correct thy son, and he shall give thee rest; yea, he shall give delight unto thy soul.

The prince that wanteth (lacks) understanding is also a great oppressor: but he that hateth covetousness shall prolong his days.

Whoso keepeth the fig tree shall eat the fruit thereof: so he that waiteth on his master shall be honoured.

He that hateth dissembleth with his lips, and layeth up deceit within him;

Confidence in an unfaithful man in time of trouble is like a broken tooth, and a foot out of joint.

A wise man is strong; yea, a man of knowledge increaseth strength.

Let not thine heart envy sinners: but be thou in the fear of the Lord all the day long.

He that loveth pureness of heart, for the grace of his lips the king shall be his friend.

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