The fining pot is for silver, and the furnace for gold: but the LORD trieth the hearts.

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

The tongue of the wise useth knowledge aright: but the mouth of fools poureth out foolishness.

He that walketh in his uprightness feareth the LORD: but he that is perverse in his ways despiseth him.

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

A man shall not be established by wickedness: but the root of the righteous shall not be moved.

Wisdom hath builded her house, she hath hewn out her seven pillars.

For wisdom is better than rubies; and all the things that may be desired and not to be compared to it.

Keep my commandments, and live; and my law as the apple of thine eye.

How long wilt thou sleep, O sluggard? when wilt thou arise out of thy sleep?
