The proverbs of Solomon. A wise son maketh a glad father: but a foolish son [is] the heaviness of his mother.

He becometh poor that dealeth [with] a slack hand: but the hand of the diligent maketh rich.
5 Sie mwet etu nunak el kosrani fukun ima lal ke pacl fal — sie mwe mwekin in motul ke pacl in kosrani.
He that gathereth in summer [is] a wise son: [but] he that sleepeth in harvest [is] a son that causeth shame.
