* Boast not thyself of to morrow ; for thou knowest not what a day may bring forth . * Let another man praise thee , and not thine own mouth ; a stranger , and not thine own lips . * A stone is heavy , and the sand weighty ; but a fools wrath is heavier than them both . * Wrath is cruel #akz @riyuwth #, and anger is outrageous ; but who is able to stand before envy qin #ah #? * Open rebuke is better than secret love . * Faithful are the wounds of a friend ; but the kisses of an enemy are deceitful . * The full soul loatheth an honeycomb ; but to the hungry soul every bitter thing is sweet . * As a bird that wandereth from her nest , so is a man that wandereth from his place . * Ointment and perfume rejoice the heart : so doth the sweetness of a mans friend by hearty counsel . * Thine own friend , and thy fathers friend , forsake not ; neither go into thy brothers house in the day of thy calamity : for better is a neighbour that is near than a brother far off . * My son , be wise , and make my heart glad , that I may answer him that reproacheth me . * A prudent man foreseeth the evil , and hideth himself ; but the simple pass on , and are punished . * Take his garment that is surety for a stranger , and take a pledge of him for a strange woman . * He that blesseth his friend with a loud voice , rising early in the morning , it shall be counted a curse to him . * A continual dropping in a very rainy day and a contentious woman are alike . * Whosoever hideth her hideth the wind , and the ointment of his right hand , which bewrayeth itself . * Iron sharpeneth iron ; so a man sharpeneth the countenance of his friend . * Whoso keepeth the fig tree shall eat the fruit thereof : so he that waiteth on his master shall be honoured . * As in water face answereth to face , so the heart of man to man . * Hell and destruction # are never full ; so the eyes of man are never satisfied . * As the fining pot for silver , and the furnace for gold ; so is a man to his praise . * Though thou shouldest bray a fool in a mortar among wheat with a pestle , yet will not his foolishness depart from him . * Be thou diligent to know the state of thy flocks tso #n #, and look well to thy herds . * For riches are not for ever : and doth the crown endure to every generation ? * The hay appeareth , and the tender grass sheweth itself , and herbs of the mountains are gathered . * The lambs are for thy clothing , and the goats are the price of the field . * And thou shalt have goats milk enough for thy food , for the food of thy household , and for the maintenance for thy maidens na #arah #.
