Be the saviour of those who are given up to death, and do not keep back help from those who are slipping to destruction.

As one who is off his head sends about flaming sticks and arrows of death,

One who has been the cause of a man's death will go in flight to the underworld: let no man give him help.

I have made request to you for two things; do not keep them from me before my death:

There is a way which seems straight before a man, but its end is the ways of death.

Death and life are in the power of the tongue; and those to whom it is dear will have its fruit for their food.

He who keeps the law keeps his soul; but death will be the fate of him who takes no note of the word.

Give your son training while there is hope; let not your heart be purposing his death.

He who gets stores of wealth by a false tongue, is going after what is only breath, and searching for death.

The desire of the hater of work is death to him, for his hands will do no work.

The hater of work says, There is a lion outside: I will be put to death in the streets.

Do not keep back training from the child: for even if you give him blows with the rod, it will not be death to him.

The lips of the upright man give food to men, but the foolish come to death for need of sense.

Wealth is of no profit in the day of wrath, but righteousness keeps a man safe from death.

At the death of an upright man his hope does not come to an end, but the hope of the evil-doer comes to destruction.

When things go well for the upright man, all the town is glad; at the death of sinners, there are cries of joy.

So righteousness gives life; but he who goes after evil gets death for himself.

In the road of righteousness is life, but the way of the evil-doer goes to death.

The teaching of the wise is a fountain of life, turning men away from the nets of death.

There is a way which seems straight before a man, but its end is the ways of death.

The fear of the Lord is a fountain of life, by which one may be turned from the nets of death.

There is bitter punishment for him who is turned from the way; and death will be the fate of the hater of teaching.

The wrath of the king is like those who give news of death, but a wise man will put peace in place of it.

Her feet go down to death, and her steps to the underworld;

The simple man goes after her, like an ox going to its death, like a roe pulled by a cord;

For those wounded and made low by her are great in number; and all those who have come to their death through her are a great army.

Her house is the way to the underworld, going down to the rooms of death.

But he who does evil to me, does wrong to his soul: all my haters are in love with death.

She has put her fat beasts to death; her wine is mixed, her table is ready.

Wealth which comes from sin is of no profit, but righteousness gives salvation from death.

Let your mouth be open for those who have no voice, in the cause of those who are ready for death.
