1Better is a dry morsel with quietness, than a house full of feasting with strife.2 A servant who deals wisely will rule over a son who causes shame, and shall have a part in the inheritance among the brothers.3 The refining pot is for silver, and the furnace for gold, but Yahweh tests the hearts.4 An evildoer heeds wicked lips. A liar gives ear to a mischievous tongue.5 Whoever mocks the poor reproaches his Maker. He who is glad at calamity shall not be unpunished.6 Childrens children are the crown of old men; the glory of children are their parents.7 Arrogant speech isnt fitting for a fool, much less do lying lips fit a prince.8 A bribe is a precious stone in the eyes of him who gives it; wherever he turns, he prospers.
