1. Better is a dry morsel with quietnessthan a house full of sacrifices with strife.
2. A wise servant will have rule over a son who causes shame,and will have part of the inheritance among the brothers.
3. The refining pot is for silver and the furnace for gold,but the Lord tries the hearts.
4. A wicked doer gives heed to false lips,and a liar gives ear to a wayward tongue.
5. Whoever mocks the poor reproaches his Maker,and he who is glad at calamities will not be unpunished.
