רַבִּים יְחַלּוּ פְנֵֽי־נָדִיב וְכָל־הָרֵעַ לְאִישׁ מַתָּֽן
Many will entreat the favour of the liberal man; And every man is a friend to him that giveth gifts.
כָּל אֲחֵי־רָשׁ שְֽׂנֵאֻהוּ אַף כִּי מְרֵעֵהוּ רָחֲקוּ מִמֶּנּוּ מְרַדֵּף אֲמָרִים לא־הֵֽמָּה
All the brethren of the poor do hate him; How much more do his friends go far from him! He that pursueth words, they turn against him.
קֹֽנֶה־לֵּב אֹהֵב נַפְשׁוֹ שֹׁמֵר תְּבוּנָה לִמְצֹא־טֽוֹב
He that getteth wisdom loveth his own soul; He that keepeth understanding shall find good.
עֵד שְׁקָרִים לֹא יִנָּקֶה וְיָפִיחַ כְּזָבִים יֹאבֵֽד
A false witness shall not be unpunished; And he that breatheth forth lies shall perish.
לֹֽא־נָאוֶה לִכְסִיל תַּעֲנוּג אַף כִּֽי־לְעֶבֶד מְשֹׁל בְּשָׂרִֽים
Luxury is not seemly for a fool; Much less for a servant to have rule over princes.
