- Be sure of this: The wicked will not go unpunished, but those who are righteous will go free.
- Like a gold ring in a pig's snout is a beautiful woman who shows no discretion.
- The desire of the righteous ends only in good, but the hope of the wicked only in wrath.
- One man gives freely, yet gains even more; another withholds unduly, but comes to poverty.
- A generous man will prosper; he who refreshes others will himself be refreshed.
|
- Though hand join in hand, the wicked shall not be unpunished: but the seed of the righteous shall be delivered.
- As a jewel of gold in a swine's snout, so is a fair woman which is without discretion.
- The desire of the righteous is only good: but the expectation of the wicked is wrath.
- There is that scattereth, and yet increaseth; and there is that withholdeth more than is meet, but it tendeth to poverty.
- The liberal soul shall be made fat: and he that watereth shall be watered also himself.
|
- People curse the man who hoards grain, but blessing crowns him who is willing to sell.
- He who seeks good finds goodwill, but evil comes to him who searches for it.
- Whoever trusts in his riches will fall, but the righteous will thrive like a green leaf.
- He who brings trouble on his family will inherit only wind, and the fool will be servant to the wise.
- The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life, and he who wins souls is wise.
|
- He that withholdeth corn, the people shall curse him: but blessing shall be upon the head of him that selleth it.
- He that diligently seeketh good procureth favour: but he that seeketh mischief, it shall come unto him.
- He that trusteth in his riches shall fall; but the righteous shall flourish as a branch.
- He that troubleth his own house shall inherit the wind: and the fool shall be servant to the wise of heart.
- The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life; and he that winneth souls is wise.
|
- If the righteous receive their due on earth, how much more the ungodly and the sinner!
|
- Behold, the righteous shall be recompensed in the earth: much more the wicked and the sinner.
