1. Better a dry crust with quietthan a house full of feasting with strife.
2. A wise servant will rule over an unworthy son,and will share the inheritance of the children.
3. The crucible for silver, and the furnace for gold,but the tester of hearts is the Lord.
4. The evildoer gives heed to wicked lips,the liar, to a mischievous tongue.
5. Whoever mocks the poor reviles their Maker;whoever rejoices in their misfortune will not go unpunished.
