שִׂמְחָה לַצַּדִּיק עֲשׂוֹת מִשְׁפָּט וּמְחִתָּה לְפֹעֲלֵי אָֽוֶן
To do justly is joy to the righteous, But ruin to the workers of iniquity.
אָדָם תּוֹעֶה מִדֶּרֶךְ הַשְׂכֵּל בִּקְהַל רְפָאִים יָנֽוּחַ
The man that strayeth out of the way of understanding Shall rest in the congregation of the shades.
אִישׁ מַחְסוֹר אֹהֵב שִׂמְחָה אֹהֵב יַֽיִן־וָשֶׁמֶן לֹא יַעֲשִֽׁיר
He that loveth pleasure shall be a poor man; He that loveth wine and oil shall not be rich.
כֹּפֶר לַצַּדִּיק רָשָׁע וְתַחַת יְשָׁרִים בּוֹגֵֽד
The wicked is a ransom for the righteous; And the faithless cometh in the stead of the upright.
טוֹב שֶׁבֶת בְּאֶֽרֶץ־מִדְבָּר מֵאֵשֶׁת מדונים וָכָֽעַס
It is better to dwell in a desert land, Than with a contentious and fretful woman.
