1An unfriendly man pursues selfish ends; he defies all sound judgment.
2A fool finds no pleasure in understanding but delights in airing his own opinions.
3When wickedness comes, so does contempt, and with shame comes disgrace.
4The words of a man's mouth are deep waters, but the fountain of wisdom is a bubbling brook.
5It is not good to be partial to the wicked or to deprive the innocent of justice.
6A fool's lips bring him strife, and his mouth invites a beating.
7A fool's mouth is his undoing, and his lips are a snare to his soul.
8The words of a gossip are like choice morsels; they go down to a man's inmost parts.
9One who is slack in his work is brother to one who destroys.
10The name of the LORD is a strong tower; the righteous run to it and are safe.
11The wealth of the rich is their fortified city; they imagine it an unscalable wall.
12Before his downfall a man's heart is proud, but humility comes before honor.
13He who answers before listening--that is his folly and his shame.
14A man's spirit sustains him in sickness, but a crushed spirit who can bear?
15The heart of the discerning acquires knowledge; the ears of the wise seek it out.
16A gift opens the way for the giver and ushers him into the presence of the great.
17The first to present his case seems right, till another comes forward and questions him.
18Casting the lot settles disputes and keeps strong opponents apart.
19An offended brother is more unyielding than a fortified city, and disputes are like the barred gates of a citadel.
20From the fruit of his mouth a man's stomach is filled; with the harvest from his lips he is satisfied.
21The tongue has the power of life and death, and those who love it will eat its fruit.
22He who finds a wife finds what is good and receives favor from the LORD.
23A poor man pleads for mercy, but a rich man answers harshly.
24A man of many companions may come to ruin, but there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother.
