The spirit of a man will sustain his infirmity; but a wounded spirit who can bear?

A reproof entereth more into a wise man than an hundred stripes into a fool.

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

The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination to the LORD: but the prayer of the upright is his delight.

 The backslider in heart shall be filled with his own ways: and a good man shall be satisfied from himself.

Righteousness keepeth him that is upright in the way: but wickedness overthroweth the sinner.

The wicked are overthrown, and are not: but the house of the righteous shall stand.

 The righteousness of the perfect shall direct his way: but the wicked shall fall by his own wickedness.

 The memory of the just is blessed: but the name of the wicked shall rot.

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