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.
Hope deferred maketh the heart sick: but [when] the desire cometh, [it is] a tree of life.
Whoso despiseth the word shall be destroyed: but he that feareth the commandment shall be rewarded.
The law of the wise [is] a fountain of life, to depart from the snares of death.
Good understanding giveth favour: but the way of transgressors [is] hard.
