4 The soul of the sluggard desireth, and hath nothing: but the soul of the diligent shall be made fat.	4 The sluggard willeth and willeth not: but the soul of them that work, shall be made fat.
5 A righteous man hateth lying: but a wicked man is loathsome, and cometh to shame.	5 The just shall hate a lying word: but the wicked confoundeth, and shall be confounded.
6 Righteousness keepeth him that is upright in the way: but wickedness overthroweth the sinner.	6 Justice keepeth the way of the innocent: but wickedness overthroweth the sinner.

10 Only by pride cometh contention: but with the well advised is wisdom.	10 Among the proud there are always contentions: but they that do all things with counsel, are ruled by wisdom.
11 Wealth gotten by vanity shall be diminished: but he that gathereth by labour shall increase.	11 Substance got in haste shall be diminished: but that which by little and little is gathered with the hand shall increase.
12 Hope deferred maketh the heart sick: but when the desire cometh, it is a tree of life.	12 Hope that is deferred afflicteth the soul: desire when it cometh is a tree of life.
13 Whoso despiseth the word shall be destroyed: but he that feareth the commandment shall be rewarded.	13 Whosoever speaketh ill of any thing, bindeth himself for the time to come: but he that feareth the commandment, shall dwell in peace. Deceitful souls go astray in sins: the just are merciful, and shew mercy.
14 The law of the wise is a fountain of life, to depart from the snares of death.	14 The law of the wise is a fountain of life, that he may decline from the ruin of death.
