A man shall eat good by the fruit of [his] mouth: but the soul of the transgressors [shall eat] violence.
He that keepeth his mouth keepeth his life: [but] he that openeth wide his lips shall have destruction.
The soul of the sluggard desireth, and [hath] nothing: but the soul of the diligent shall be made fat.
A righteous [man] hateth lying: but a wicked [man] is loathsome, and cometh to shame.
Righteousness keepeth [him that is] upright in the way: but wickedness overthroweth the sinner.
There is that maketh himself rich, yet [hath] nothing: [there is] that maketh himself poor, yet [hath] great riches.
The ransom of a man's life [are] his riches: but the poor heareth not rebuke.
The light of the righteous rejoiceth: but the lamp of the wicked shall be put out.
Only by pride cometh contention: but with the well advised [is] wisdom.
Wealth [gotten] by vanity shall be diminished: but he that gathereth by labour shall increase.
