When your fear cometh as desolation, and your destruction cometh as a whirlwind; when distress and anguish cometh upon you.

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

Let not mercy and truth forsake thee: bind them about thy neck; write them upon the table of thine heart:

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 thine heart, and tie them about thy neck.

Can one go upon hot coals, and his feet not be burned?

Bind them upon thy fingers, write them upon the table of thine heart.

When he prepared the heavens, I was there: when he set a compass upon the face of the depth:

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

Blessings are upon the head of the just: but violence covereth the mouth of the wicked.

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

He that withholdeth corn, the people shall curse him: but blessing shall be upon the head of him that selleth it.

Every prudent man dealeth with knowledge: but a fool layeth open his folly.

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

He that hath pity upon the poor lendeth unto the LORD; and that which he hath given will he pay him again.

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

Wilt thou set thine eyes upon that which is not? for riches certainly make themselves wings; they fly away as an eagle toward heaven.

Look not thou upon the wine when it is red, when it giveth his colour in the cup, when it moveth itself aright.

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.

Then I saw, and considered it well: I looked upon it, and received instruction.

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

As he that taketh away a garment in cold weather, and as vinegar upon nitre, so is he that singeth songs to an heavy heart.

For thou shalt heap coals of fire upon his head, and the LORD shall reward thee.

As the door turneth upon his hinges, so doth the slothful upon his bed.

Whoso diggeth a pit shall fall therein: and he that rolleth a stone, it will return upon him.

Open rebuke is better than secret love.

He that hasteth to be rich hath an evil eye, and considereth not that poverty shall come upon him.

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 maid.

There be 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 thine hand upon thy mouth.

Open thy mouth for the dumb in the cause of all such as are appointed to destruction.

Open thy mouth, judge righteously, and plead the cause of the poor and needy.
