- The fear of the LORD is a fountain of life, to depart from the snares of death.
- In the multitude of people is the king's honour: but in the want of people is the destruction of the prince.
- He that is slow to wrath is of great understanding: but he that is hasty of spirit exalteth folly.
- A sound heart is the life of the flesh: but envy the rottenness of the bones.
- He that oppresseth the poor reproacheth his Maker: but he that honoureth him hath mercy on the poor.

- The fear of the LORD is a fountain of life, That one may avoid the snares of death.
- In a multitude of people is a king's glory, But in the dearth of people is a prince's ruin.
- He who is slow to anger has great understanding, But he who is quick-tempered exalts folly.
- A tranquil heart is life to the body, But passion is rottenness to the bones.
- He who oppresses the poor taunts his Maker, But he who is gracious to the needy honors Him.
