- He who leads the upright astray in an evil way Will himself fall into his own pit, But the blameless will inherit good.
- The rich man is wise in his own eyes, But the poor who has understanding sees through him.
- When the righteous triumph, there is great glory, But when the wicked rise, men hide themselves.
- He who conceals his transgressions will not prosper, But he who confesses and forsakes them will find compassion.
- How blessed is the man who fears always, But he who hardens his heart will fall into calamity.

- Like a roaring lion and a rushing bear Is a wicked ruler over a poor people.
- A leader who is a great oppressor lacks understanding, But he who hates unjust gain will prolong his days.
- A man who is laden with the guilt of human blood Will be a fugitive until death; let no one support him.
- He who walks blamelessly will be delivered, But he who is crooked will fall all at once.
- He who tills his land will have plenty of food, But he who follows empty pursuits will have poverty in plenty.
