1. Do not boast about tomorrow;for you do not know what a day may bring forth.
2. Let another praise you, and not your own mouth;someone else, and not your own lips.
3. A stone is heavy and sand is weighty,but vexation by a fool is more burdensome than the two of them.
4. Wrath is cruel and anger is overwhelming,but who can stand before jealousy?
5. Better is open rebukethan hidden love.
6. Faithful are the wounds of a friend,but the kisses of an enemy are excessive.
7. The one whose appetite is satisfied loathes honey,but to the hungry mouth every bitter thing is sweet.
8. Like a bird that wanders from its nest,so is a person who wanders from his home.
