The LORD hath made all [things] for himself: yea, even the
wicked for the day of evil.

Better [is] a little with righteousness than great revenues
without right.

favour [is] as a cloud of the latter rain.

How much better [is it] to get wisdom than gold! and to
get understanding rather to be chosen than silver!

The highway of the upright [is] to depart from evil: he
that keepeth his way preserveth his soul.

Pride [goeth] before destruction, and an haughty spirit
before a fall.

than to divide the spoil with the proud.

He that handleth a matter wisely shall find good: and
whoso trusteth in the LORD, happy [is] he.

The wise in heart shall be called prudent: and the
sweetness of the lips increaseth learning.

it: but the instruction of fools [is] folly.

learning to his lips.

as a burning fire.

chief friends.

the way [that is] not good.
-
He shutteth his eyes to devise froward things: moving his
lips he bringeth evil to pass.
-
The hoary head [is] a crown of glory, [if] it be found in
the way of righteousness.
-
[He that is] slow to anger [is] better than the mighty;
and he that ruleth his spirit than he that taketh a city.
-
The lot is cast into the lap; but the whole disposing
thereof [is] of the LORD.
