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

Thorns and snares are in the way of the froward: he that doth keep his soul shall be far from them.

The way of man is froward and strange: but as for the pure, his work is right.

It is an honour for a man to cease from strife: but every fool will be meddling.

A false witness shall not be unpunished, and he that speaketh lies shall perish.

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

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

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

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

For thou art an holy people unto the Lord thy God, and the Lord hath chosen thee to be a peculiar people unto Himself, above all the nations that are upon the earth.
