A reproof entereth more into a wise man than an hundred stripes into a fool.

Commit thy works unto the Lord, and thy thoughts shall be established.

The eyes of the Lord are in every place, beholding the evil and the good.

Every wise woman buildeth her house: but the foolish plucketh it down with her hands.

A wise son heareth his father’s instruction: but a scorner heareth not rebuke.

The thoughts of the righteous are right: but the counsels of the wicked are deceit.

Riches profit not in the day of wrath: but righteousness delivereth from death.

The Lord will not suffer the soul of the righteous to famish: but He casteth away the substance of the wicked.

For by me thy days shall be multiplied, and the years of thy life shall be increased.

Hear; for I will speak of excellent things; and the opening of my lips shall be right things.
