“But he that possesseth a mind, loveth his own soul, and he that keepeth prudence, shall find good things.”
“He who gets wisdom has love for his soul: he who keeps good sense will get what is truly good.”
“He that getteth wisdom loveth his own soul: he that keepeth understanding shall find good.”
A false witness shall not be unpunished; And he that uttereth lies shall not escape.
Many will entreat the favor of the liberal man; And every man is a friend to him that giveth gifts.
All the brethren of the poor do hate him: How much more do his friends go far from him! He pursueth them with words, but they are gone.
He that getteth wisdom loveth his own soul: He that keepeth understanding shall find good.
A false witness shall not be unpunished; And he that uttereth lies shall perish.
Delicate living is not seemly for a fool; Much less for a servant to have rule over princes.
The discretion of a man maketh him slow to anger; And it is his glory to pass over a transgression.
