He who in summer gets together his store is a son who does wisely; but he who takes his rest when the grain is being cut is a son causing shame.

He who keeps back grain will be cursed by the people; but a blessing will be on the head of him who lets them have it for a price.

So your store-houses will be full of grain, and your vessels overflowing with new wine.

She gets her meat in the summer, storing up food at the time of the grain-cutting.

As the cold of snow in the time of grain-cutting, so is a true servant to those who send him; for he gives new life to the soul of his master.

By planting the seed of evil a man will get in the grain of sorrow, and the rod of his wrath will be broken.
