מֵרַע מַקְשִׁיב עַל־שְׂפַת־אָוֶן שֶׁקֶר מֵזִין עַל־לְשׁוֹן הַוֺּֽת
A evil-doer giveth heed to wicked lips; And a liar giveth ear to a mischievous tongue.
לֹעֵג לָרָשׁ חֵרֵף עֹשֵׂהוּ שָׂמֵחַ לְאֵיד לֹא יִנָּקֶֽה
Whoso mocketh the poor blasphemeth his Maker; And he that is glad at calamity shall not be unpunished.
עֲטֶרֶת זְקֵנִים בְּנֵי בָנִים וְתִפְאֶרֶת בָּנִים אֲבוֹתָֽם
Children’s children are the crown of old men; And the glory of children are their fathers.
לֹא־נָאוָה לְנָבָל שְׂפַת־יֶתֶר אַף כִּֽי־לְנָדִיב שְׂפַת־שָֽׁקֶר
Overbearing speech becometh not a churl; Much less do lying lips a prince.
אֶֽבֶן־חֵן הַשֹּׁחַד בְּעֵינֵי בְעָלָיו אֶֽל־כָּל־אֲשֶׁר יִפְנֶה יַשְׂכִּֽיל
A gift is as a precious stone in the eyes of him that hath it; Whithersoever he turneth, he prospereth.
