Verse 1א׳Standard1,882

אַֽל־תִּתְהַלֵּל בְּיוֹם מָחָר כִּי לֹא־תֵדַע מַה־יֵּלֶד יֽוֹם

Boast not thyself of to- morrow; For thou knowest not what a day may bring forth.

Verse 2ב׳Standard1,576

יְהַלֶּלְךָ זָר וְלֹא־פִיךָ נָכְרִי וְאַל־שְׂפָתֶֽיךָ

Let another man praise thee, and not thine own mouth; A stranger, and not thine own lips.

Verse 3ג׳Standard897

כֹּֽבֶד־אֶבֶן וְנֵטֶל הַחוֹל וְכַעַס אֱוִיל כָּבֵד מִשְּׁנֵיהֶֽם

A stone is heavy, and the sand weighty; But a fool’s vexation is heavier than they both.

Verse 4ד׳Standard1,679

אַכְזְרִיּוּת חֵמָה וְשֶׁטֶף אָף וּמִי יַעֲמֹד לִפְנֵי קִנְאָֽה

Wrath is cruel, and anger is overwhelming; But who is able to stand before jealousy?

Verse 5ה׳Standard2,087

טוֹבָה תּוֹכַחַת מְגֻלָּה מֵֽאַהֲבָה מְסֻתָּֽרֶת

Better is open rebuke Than love that is hidden.

Verse 6ו׳Standard2,810

נֶאֱמָנִים פִּצְעֵי אוֹהֵב וְנַעְתָּרוֹת נְשִׁיקוֹת שׂוֹנֵֽא

Faithful are the wounds of a friend; But the kisses of an enemy are importunate.

Verse 7ז׳Standard3,354

נֶפֶשׁ שְׂבֵעָה תָּבוּס נֹפֶת וְנֶפֶשׁ רְעֵבָה כָּל־מַר מָתֽוֹק

The full soul loatheth a honeycomb; But to the hungry soul every bitter thing is sweet.

Verse 8ח׳Standard1,782

כְּצִפּוֹר נוֹדֶדֶת מִן־קִנָּהּ כֵּֽן־אִישׁ נוֹדֵד מִמְּקוֹמֽוֹ

As a bird that wandereth from her nest, So is a man that wandereth from his place.

Verse 9ט׳Standard3,352

שֶׁמֶן וּקְטֹרֶת יְשַׂמַּֽח־לֵב וּמֶתֶק רֵעֵהוּ מֵֽעֲצַת־נָֽפֶשׁ

Ointment and perfume rejoice the heart; So doth the sweetness of a man’s friend by hearty counsel.

Verse 10י׳Standard3,162

רֵֽעֲךָ ורעה אָבִיךָ אַֽל־תַּעֲזֹב וּבֵית אָחִיךָ אַל־תָּבוֹא בְּיוֹם אֵידֶךָ טוֹב שָׁכֵן קָרוֹב מֵאָח רָחֽוֹק

Thine own friend, and thy father’s friend, forsake not; Neither go into thy brother’s house in the day of thy calamity; Better is a neighbour that is near than a brother far off.
