Bread of deceit is sweet to a man; but afterwards his mouth shall be filled with gravel.

Take his garment that is surety for a stranger: and take a pledge of him for a strange woman.

Chasten thy son while there is hope, and let not thy soul spare for his crying.

He that hath pity upon the poor lendeth unto the LORD; and that which he hath given will he pay him again.

He that keepeth the commandment keepeth his own soul; but he that despiseth his ways shall die.

The lot causeth contentions to cease, and parteth between the mighty.

He that is first in his own cause seemeth just; but his neighbour cometh and searcheth him.

A man's gift maketh room for him, and bringeth him before great men.

A man void of understanding striketh hands, and becometh surety in the presence of his friend.

A friend loveth at all times, and a brother is born for adversity.
