- A man who hardens his neck after much reproof Will suddenly be broken beyond remedy.
- When the righteous increase, the people rejoice, But when a wicked man rules, people groan.
- A man who loves wisdom makes his father glad, But he who keeps company with harlots wastes his wealth.
- The king gives stability to the land by justice, But a man who takes bribes overthrows it.
- A man who flatters his neighbor Is spreading a net for his steps.

- He, that being often reproved hardeneth his neck, shall suddenly be destroyed, and that without remedy.
- When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice: but when the wicked beareth rule, the people mourn.
- Whoso loveth wisdom rejoiceth his father: but he that keepeth company with harlots spendeth his substance.
- The king by judgment establisheth the land: but he that receiveth gifts overthroweth it.
- A man that flattereth his neighbour spreadeth a net for his feet.
