לִפְנֵי־שֶׁבֶר גָּאוֹן וְלִפְנֵי כִשָּׁלוֹן גֹּבַהּ רֽוּחַ
Pride goeth before destruction, And a haughty spirit before a fall.
טוֹב שְׁפַל־רוּחַ אֶת־עניים מֵֽחַלֵּק שָׁלָל אֶת־גֵּאִֽים
Better it is to be of a lowly spirit with the humble, Than to divide the spoil with the proud.
מַשְׂכִּיל עַל־דָּבָר יִמְצָא־טוֹב וּבוֹטֵחַ בַּיהוָה אַשְׁרָֽיו
He that giveth heed unto the word shall find good; And whoso trusteth in the LORD, happy is he.
לַחֲכַם־לֵב יִקָּרֵא נָבוֹן וּמֶתֶק שְׂפָתַיִם יֹסִיף לֶֽקַח
The wise in heart is called a man of discernment; And the sweetness of the lips increaseth learning.
מְקוֹר חַיִּים שֵׂכֶל בְּעָלָיו וּמוּסַר אֱוִלִים אִוֶּֽלֶת
Understanding is a fountain of life unto him that hath it; But folly is the chastisement of fools.
