Turn you at my reproof: Behold, I will pour out my spirit upon you; I will make known my words unto you.

When your fear cometh as a storm, And your calamity cometh on as a whirlwind; When distress and anguish come upon you.

Then will they call upon me, but I will not answer; They will seek me diligently, but they shall not find me:

Let not kindness and truth forsake thee: Bind them about thy neck; Write them upon the tablet of thy heart:

Trust in Jehovah with all thy heart, And lean not upon thine own understanding:

She is a tree of life to them that lay hold upon her: And happy is every one that retaineth her.

Bind them continually upon thy heart; Tie them about thy neck.

Or can one walk upon hot coals, And his feet not be scorched?

Bind them upon thy fingers; Write them upon the tablet of thy heart.

When he established the heavens, I was there: When he set a circle upon the face of the deep,

She hath sent forth her maidens; She crieth upon the highest places of the city:

Blessings are upon the head of the righteous; But violence covereth the mouth of the wicked.

The fear of the wicked, it shall come upon him; And the desire of the righteous shall be granted.

He that withholdeth grain, the people shall curse him; But blessing shall be upon the head of him that selleth it.

The eyes of Jehovah are in every place, Keeping watch upon the evil and the good.

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

He that hath pity upon the poor lendeth unto Jehovah, And his good deed will he pay him again.

Love not sleep, let thou come to poverty; Open thine eyes, and thou shalt be satisfied with bread.

For it is a pleasant thing if thou keep them within thee, If they be established together upon thy lips.

Wilt thou set thine eyes upon that which is not? For riches certainly make themselves wings, Like an eagle that flieth toward heaven.

Look not thou upon the wine when it is red, When it sparkleth in the cup, When it goeth down smoothly:

Yea, thou shalt be as he that lieth down in the midst of the sea, Or as he that lieth upon the top of a mast.

But to them that rebuke him'shall be delight, And a good blessing shall come upon them.

As an ear-ring of gold, and an ornament of fine gold,'so is a wise reprover upon an obedient ear.

As one that taketh off a garment in cold weather, and as vinegar upon soda, So is he that singeth songs to a heavy heart.

For thou wilt heap coals of fire upon his head, And Jehovah will reward thee.

As the door turneth upon its hinges, So doth the sluggard upon his bed.

Whoso diggeth a pit shall fall therein; And he that rolleth a stone, it shall return upon him.

Better is open rebuke Than love that is hidden.

he that hath an evil eye hasteth after riches, And knoweth not that want shall come upon him.

When the wicked are increased, transgression increaseth; But the righteous shall look upon their fall.

The way of an eagle in the air; The way of a serpent upon a rock; The way of a ship in the midst of the sea; And the way of a man with a maiden.

There are four things which are little upon the earth, But they are exceeding wise:

If thou hast done foolishly in lifting up thyself, Or if thou hast thought evil, Lay thy hand upon thy mouth.

Open thy mouth for the dumb, In the cause of all such as are left desolate.

Open thy mouth, judge righteously, And minister justice to the poor and needy.
