- He who leads the upright along an evil path will fall into his own trap, but the blameless will receive a good inheritance.
- A rich man may be wise in his own eyes, but a poor man who has discernment sees through him.
- When the righteous triumph, there is great elation; but when the wicked rise to power, men go into hiding.
- He who conceals his sins does not prosper, but whoever confesses and renounces them finds mercy.
- Blessed is the man who always fears the LORD, but he who hardens his heart falls into trouble.

- Whoso causeth the righteous to go astray in an evil way, he shall fall himself into his own pit: but the upright shall have good things in possession.
- The rich man is wise in his own conceit; but the poor that hath understanding searcheth him out.
- When righteous men do rejoice, there is great glory: but when the wicked rise, a man is hidden.
- He that covereth his sins shall not prosper: but whoso confesseth and forsaketh them shall have mercy.
- Happy is the man that feareth alway: but he that hardeneth his heart shall fall into mischief.
