Wine is a mocker; strong drink is raging. Whoever is deceived by it is not wise. The terror of a king is like a lion; Provoking it may cost a life. Honor belongs to one who stops contention; Every fool will keep the quarrel moving. A sluggard will not plow in winter, Then begs at harvest and receives nothing. Counsel in a human heart is deep water; A person of understanding draws it out. Many people proclaim their own goodness; Who can find a faithful one? Differing weights and measures are detestable. Even a child is known by conduct. The hearing ear and seeing eye Were both created by the Lord. Do not say, "I will repay evil." Wait upon the Lord, and He will save. Strength is glory for the young; Gray hair is beauty for the old.
