He who acquires a heart of wisdom loves his own soul;
He who keeps discernment will find good.

A man’s insight makes him slow to anger,
And it is his honor to overlook a transgression.

Listen to counsel and receive discipline,
That you may be wise in the end of your days.
Many thoughts are in a man’s heart,
But it is the counsel of Yahweh that will stand.

The fear of Yahweh leads to life,
So that one may sleep satisfied, not visited by evil.
