There is treasure to be desired and oil in the dwelling of the wise; but a foolish man spendeth it up.

 The just man walketh in his integrity: his children are blessed after him.

 He that getteth wisdom loveth his own soul: he that keepeth understanding shall find good.

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

A gift is as a precious stone in the eyes of him that hath it: whithersoever it turneth, it prospereth.

 Commit thy works unto the LORD, and thy thoughts shall be established.

A wholesome tongue is a tree of life: but perverseness therein is a breach in the spirit.

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

 The soul of the sluggard desireth, and hath nothing: but the soul of the diligent shall be made fat.

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