If they say, Come with us, let us lay wait for blood, let us lurk privily for the innocent without cause:

My son, if sinners entice thee, consent thou not.

He that turneth away his ear from hearing the law, even his prayer shall be abomination.

He that by usury and unjust gain increaseth his substance, he shall gather it for him that will pity the poor.

Whoso keepeth the law is a wise son: but he that is a companion of riotous men shameth his father.

Ointment and perfume rejoice the heart: so doth the sweetness of a man's friend by hearty counsel.

As a bird that wandereth from her nest, so is a man that wandereth from his place.

The full soul loatheth an honeycomb; but to the hungry soul every bitter thing is sweet.

As a thorn goeth up into the hand of a drunkard, so is a parable in the mouths of fools.

As he that bindeth a stone in a sling, so is he that giveth honour to a fool.
