Resentment kills a fool, and envy slays the simple. 忿怒害死愚妄人，嫉妒杀死痴迷人。--《旧·伯》5：2
Does a wild donkey bray when it has grass, or an ox bellow when it has fodder? 野驴有草岂能叫唤，牛有料，岂能吼叫。--《旧·伯》6：5
I will speak out in the anguish of my spirit, I will complain in the bitterness of my soul. 我灵愁苦，要发出言语。我心苦恼，要吐露哀情。--《旧·伯》7：11
Can papyrus grow tall where there is no marsh? Can reeds thrive without water? 蒲草没有泥，岂能发长。芦荻没有水，岂能生发。--《旧·伯》8：11
Is not wisdom found among the aged? Does not long life bring understanding? 年老的有智慧，寿高的有知识。--《旧·伯》12：12
The lamp of the wicked is snuffed out; the flame of his fire stops burning. 恶人的亮光必要熄灭。他的火焰必不照耀。--《旧·伯》18：5
that the mirth of the wicked is brief, the joy of the godless lasts but a moment. 恶人夸胜是暂时的，不敬虔人的喜乐，不过转眼之间。--《旧·伯》20：5
Make it your ambition to lead a quiet life, to mind your own business and to work with your own hands.
Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart.
Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead.
Everyone should e quick to listen, slow to speak and slower to become angry.
Aim for perfection, be of one mind, live in peace. And the God of love and peace will be with you.
We brought nothing into the world, and we can take nothing out of it.
The fruit of spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control.
Faith by itself, if it is not a accompanied by action, is dead.
当为贫寒的人和孤儿伸冤。当为困苦和穷乏的人施行公义。——《旧·诗》82：3 Love and faithfulness meet together; righteousness and peace kiss each other.
慈爱和诚实，彼此相遇。公义和平安，彼此相亲。——《旧·诗》85：10 turning your ear to wisdom and applying your heart to understanding,
侧耳听智慧，专心求聪明。——《旧·箴》2：2
Seven that are detestable to him: haughty eyes, a lying tongue, hands that shed innocent blood, a heart that devises wicked schemes, feet that are quick to rush into evil, a false witness who pours out lies and a man who stirs up dissension among brothers.
心所憎恶的共有七样，就是：高傲的眼，撒谎的舌，流无辜人血的手，图谋恶计的心，飞跑行恶的脚，吐谎言的假见证，并弟兄中布散分争的人。——《旧·箴》6：16-19 Wisdom, dwell together with prudence; I possess knowledge and discretion.
智慧以灵明为居所，又寻得知识和谋略。——《旧·箴》8：12 The man of integrity walks securely, but he who takes crooked paths will be found out.
行正直路的，步步安稳。走弯曲道的，必致败露。——《旧·箴》10：9 Love covers over all wrongs.
