When pride cometh, then cometh shame: but with the lowly is wisdom.

Blessings are upon the head of the just: but violence covereth the mouth of the wicked.

Forsake the foolish, and live; and go in the way of understanding.

Hear; for I (Wisdom) will speak of excellent things; and the opening of my lips shall be right things.

The poor and the deceitful man meet together: the Lord lighteneth both their eyes.

Whoso walketh uprightly shall be saved: but he that is perverse in his ways shall fall at once.

Let another man praise thee, and not thine own mouth; a stranger, and not thine own lips.

The great God that formed all things both rewardeth the fool, and rewardeth transgressors.

Take away the wicked from before the king, and his throne shall be established in righteousness.

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