For the master of the house is away on a long journey:

Then I was by him, as a master workman; And I was daily his delight, Rejoicing always before him,

A woman of strength [is] the crown of her master, but like rot in his bones is she who brings shame.

Even he who is slack in his work, he is brother to a master of destruction.

He that deviseth to do evil shall be called a master of intrigues.

Like the cold of snow on a day of harvest [is] a faithful messenger to those who send him, and the soul of his master is refreshed.

A master roughly worketh every one: he both hireth the fool and hireth passers-by.

Whoso keepeth the fig tree shall eat the fruit thereof: so he that waiteth on his master shall be honoured.

A servant will not be corrected by words alone;
For though he understands, he will not respond [nor pay attention].

He that delicately bringeth up his servant from a child, shall make him his master at length.

Accuse not a servant unto his master, lest he curse thee, and thou be found guilty.

A hated woman when she is married; and a servant-girl who takes the place of her master's wife.
