The man that wandereth out of the way of understanding shall remain in the congregation of the dead.
He that loveth pleasure [shall be] a poor man: he that loveth wine and oil shall not be rich.
The wicked [shall be] a ransom for the righteous, and the transgressor for the upright.
[It is] better to dwell in the wilderness, than with a contentious and an angry woman.
[There is] treasure to be desired and oil in the dwelling of the wise; but a foolish man spendeth it up.
He that followeth after righteousness and mercy findeth life, righteousness, and honour.
A wise [man] scaleth the city of the mighty, and casteth down the strength of the confidence thereof.
Whoso keepeth his mouth and his tongue keepeth his soul from troubles.
Proud [and] haughty scorner [is] his name, who dealeth in proud wrath.
The desire of the slothful killeth him; for his hands refuse to labour.
