1. Do not boast about tomorrow, For you do not know what a day may bring forth.
2. Let another praise you, and not your own mouth; A stranger, and not your own lips.
3. A stone is heavy and the sand weighty, But the provocation of a fool is heavier than both of them.
4. Wrath is fierce and anger is a flood, But who can stand before jealousy?
5. Better is open rebuke Than love that is concealed.
6. Faithful are the wounds of a friend, But deceitful are the kisses of an enemy.
7. A sated man loathes honey, But to a famished man any bitter thing is sweet.
8. Like a bird that wanders from her nest, So is a man who wanders from his home.
