The eyes of the LORD preserve knowledge, and he overthroweth the words of the transgressor.

A gift in secret pacifieth anger: and a reward in the bosom strong wrath.

It is a snare to the man who devoureth that which is holy, and after vows to make enquiry.

The fear of the LORD is clean, enduring for ever: the judgments of the LORD are true and righteous altogether.

The heart of the prudent getteth knowledge; and the ear of the wise seeketh knowledge.

He that covereth a transgression seeketh love; but he that repeateth a matter separateth very friends.

Better is a little with righteousness than great revenues without right.

For the LORD thy God blesseth thee, as He promised thee: and thou shalt lend unto many nations, but thou shalt not borrow; and thou shalt reign over many nations, but they shall not reign over thee.

A wise man feareth, and departeth from evil: but the fool rageth, and is confident.

He that keepeth his mouth keepeth his life: but he that openeth wide his lips shall have destruction.
