A man that hardeneth his necke when he is rebuked, shall suddenly be destroyed and can not be cured.
2 Kad taisnie iet vairumā, tad ļaudis priecājās; bet kad bezdievīgais valda, tad ļaudis nopūšās.
When the righteous are in authoritie, the people reioyce: but when the wicked beareth rule, the people sigh.

5 Kas otram mīksti pieglaužas, met tīklu viņa soļiem.

12 Kungs, kas uz meliem klausa, tam visi kalpi blēži.

19 Kalps ar vārdiem nav mācams; lai gan labi prot, taču neklausa,

20 Kad tu vīru redzi, kam veikla mēle, tad no muļķa vairāk cerības nekā no tāda.
