בֵּן חָכָם יְשַׂמַּח־אָב וּכְסִיל אָדָם בּוֹזֶה אִמּֽוֹ
A wise son maketh a glad father; But a foolish man despiseth his mother.
אִוֶּלֶת שִׂמְחָה לַחֲסַר־לֵב וְאִישׁ תְּבוּנָה יְיַשֶׁר־לָֽכֶת
Folly is joy to him that lacketh understanding; But a man of discernment walketh straightforwards.
הָפֵר מַחֲשָׁבוֹת בְּאֵין סוֹד וּבְרֹב יוֹעֲצִים תָּקֽוּם
For want of counsel purposes are frustrated; But in the multitude of counsellors they are established.
שִׂמְחָה לָאִישׁ בְּמַעֲנֵה־פִיו וְדָבָר בְּעִתּוֹ מַה־טּֽוֹב
