There are many devices in a man's heart, but the counsel of LORD, that shall stand.

That which makes a man to be desired is his kindness, and a poor man is better than a liar.

The fear of LORD is life to a man, and he shall abide satisfied. He shall not be visited with evil.

The sluggard buries his hand in the dish, and will not so much as bring it to his mouth again.

To err from the words of knowledge, cease, my son, to hear instruction.

A worthless witness mocks at justice, and the mouth of the wicked swallows iniquity.

He who has pity upon a poor man lends to LORD, and he will repay him his good deed.

The discretion of a man makes him slow to anger, and it is his glory to pass over a transgression.

Better is a poor man who walks in his integrity than he who is perverse in his lips and is a fool.

Chasten thy son while there is hope, and let not thy soul spare for his crying.

Also, that the soul be without knowledge is not good. And he who hastens with his feet sins.

The foolishness of a man subverts his way, and his heart rages against LORD.

House and riches are an inheritance from fathers, but a prudent wife is from LORD.

He who does violence to his father, and chases away his mother, is a son that causes shame and brings reproach.

Hear counsel, and receive instruction, that thou may be wise in thy latter end.

Smite a scoffer, and a simple man will learn prudence. And reprove him who has understanding, [and] he will understand knowledge.

A foolish son is the calamity of his father, and the contentions of a wife are a continual dropping.

A FALSE witness shall not be unpunished, and he who utters lies shall not escape.

Judgments are prepared for scoffers, and stripes for the back of fools.

Slothfulness casts into a deep sleep, and the idle soul shall suffer hunger.

He who keeps the commandment keeps his soul. He who is careless of his ways shall die.

A man of great wrath shall bear the penalty, for if thou deliver [him], thou must do it yet again.

He who gets wisdom loves his own soul. He who keeps understanding shall find good.

Wealth adds many friends, but a poor man is separated from his friend.

A FALSE witness shall not be unpunished, and he who utters lies shall perish.

Many will entreat the favor of a generous man, and every man is a friend to him who gives gifts.

Luxurious living is not fitting for a fool, much less for a servant to have rule over rulers.

The king's wrath is as the roaring of a lion, but his favor is as dew upon the grass.

All the brothers of a poor man hate him, how much more do his friends go far from him! He pursues [with] words, [but] they are gone.
