- 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.
|
- The wicked is thrust down by his wrongdoing, But the righteous has a refuge when he dies.
- Wisdom rests in the heart of one who has understanding, But in the hearts of fools it is made known.
- Righteousness exalts a nation, But sin is a disgrace to any people.
- The king's favor is toward a servant who acts wisely, But his anger is toward him who acts shamefully.
