2.6 KiB
Chapter 27
-
Don't brag about tomorrow, since you don't know what the day will bring.
-
Let someone else praise you, not your own mouth-- a stranger, not your own lips.
-
A stone is heavy and sand is weighty, but the resentment caused by a fool is even heavier.
-
Anger is cruel, and wrath is like a flood, but jealousy is even more dangerous.
-
An open rebuke is better than hidden love!
-
Wounds from a sincere friend are better than many kisses from an enemy.
-
A person who is full refuses honey, but even bitter food tastes sweet to the hungry.
-
A person who strays from home is like a bird that strays from its nest.
-
The heartfelt counsel of a friend is as sweet as perfume and incense.
-
Never abandon a friend-- either yours or your father's. When disaster strikes, you won't have to ask your brother for assistance. It's better to go to a neighbor than to a brother who lives far away.
-
Be wise, my child, and make my heart glad. Then I will be able to answer my critics.
-
A prudent person foresees danger and takes precautions. The simpleton goes blindly on and suffers the consequences.
-
Get security from someone who guarantees a stranger's debt. Get a deposit if he does it for foreigners.
-
A loud and cheerful greeting early in the morning will be taken as a curse!
-
A quarrelsome wife is as annoying as constant dripping on a rainy day.
-
Stopping her complaints is like trying to stop the wind or trying to hold something with greased hands.
-
As iron sharpens iron, so a friend sharpens a friend.
-
As workers who tend a fig tree are allowed to eat the fruit, so workers who protect their employer's interests will be rewarded.
-
As a face is reflected in water, so the heart reflects the real person.
-
Just as Death and Destruction are never satisfied, so human desire is never satisfied.
-
Fire tests the purity of silver and gold, but a person is tested by being praised.
-
You cannot separate fools from their foolishness, even though you grind them like grain with mortar and pestle.
-
Know the state of your flocks, and put your heart into caring for your herds,
-
for riches don't last forever, and the crown might not be passed to the next generation.
-
After the hay is harvested and the new crop appears and the mountain grasses are gathered in,
-
your sheep will provide wool for clothing, and your goats will provide the price of a field.
-
And you will have enough goats' milk for yourself, your family, and your servant girls.
