let us swallow them up alive as the grave, and whole, as those who go down into the pit;

When wisdom enters into your heart, and knowledge is pleasing to your soul;

Enter not into the path of the wicked, and go not into the way of evil.

My son, do this now, and deliver yourself when you have come into the hand of your friend; go, humble yourself and make your friend sure.

A wicked messenger falls into mischief, but a faithful ambassador is health.

The lot is cast into the lap, but the whole disposing of it is from Jehovah.

A reproof enters more into a wise man than a thousand stripes into a fool.

He who has a perverse heart finds no good, and he who has a crooked tongue falls into mischief.

A fool's lips enter into argument, and his mouth calls for strokes.

The words of a talebearer are as wounds, and they go down into the innermost parts of the belly.

The name of Jehovah is a strong tower; the righteous man runs into it and is safe.

Laziness throws one into a deep sleep, and an idle soul shall suffer hunger.

Will your eyes fly on it? And it is gone! For surely it makes wings for itself; it flies into the heavens like an eagle.

Do not remove the old landmarks, and do not enter into the fields of the fatherless;

for a just one falls seven times, and rises up again; but the wicked shall fall into evil.

As a thorn goes up into the hand of a drunkard, so is a parable in the mouth of fools.

The words of a talebearer are as wounds, and they go down into the innermost parts of the belly.

Whoever digs a pit shall fall into it; and he who rolls a stone, it will turn back to him.

Whoever causes the righteous man to go astray in an evil way, he himself shall fall into his own pit; but the upright shall inherit good.

Blessed is the man dreading God, but he who hardens his heart shall fall into mischief.

Scornful men bring a city into a snare, but the wise turn away wrath.
