Let your eyes look directly ahead [toward the path of moral courage]
And let your gaze be fixed straight in front of you [toward the path of integrity].

The first one to plead his case seems right,
Until another comes and cross-examines him.

For Yahweh will plead their case and despoil those who despoil them of life.

When you fix your gaze on it, it's gone, for it sprouts wings for itself and flies to the sky like an eagle.

for their Redeemer is strong,
and He will take up their case against you.

Don’t gaze at wine because it is red,
when it gleams in the cup
and goes down smoothly.

Every man shall kiss his lips that giveth a right answer.

Do not go out hastily to argue your case;
Otherwise, what will you do in the end,
When your neighbor humiliates you?

Make your case with your opponent
without revealing another’s secret;

[The] righteous knows [the] case of the poor, but [the] wicked does not understand knowledge.
