True measures and scales are the Lord's: all the weights of the bag are his work.

13
Lips of righteousness are the delight of kings; and he who says what is upright is dear to him.
14 La ira del rey es mensajero de muerte: Mas el hombre sabio la evitará.

In the light of the king's face there is life; and his approval is like a cloud of spring rain.

18 Antes del quebrantamiento es la soberbia; Y antes de la caída la altivez de espíritu.
18
Pride goes before destruction, and a stiff spirit before a fall.
19 Mejor es humillar el espíritu con los humildes, Que partir despojos con los soberbios.
19
Better it is to have a gentle spirit with the poor, than to take part in the rewards of war with men of pride.

22
Wisdom is a fountain of life to him who has it; but the punishment of the foolish is their foolish behaviour.
23 El corazón del sabio hace prudente su boca; Y con sus labios aumenta la doctrina.
23
The heart of the wise man is the teacher of his mouth, and gives increased learning to his lips.
24 Panal de miel son los dichos suaves. Suavidad al alma y medicina á los huesos.
24
Pleasing words are like honey, sweet to the soul and new life to the bones.

25
There is a way which seems straight before a man, but its end is the ways of death.

A good-for-nothing man is a designer of evil, and in his lips there is a burning fire.
28 El hombre perverso levanta contienda; Y el chismoso aparta los mejores amigos.
28
A man of twisted purposes is a cause of fighting everywhere: and he who says evil secretly makes trouble between friends.
29 El hombre malo lisonjea á su prójimo, Y le hace andar por el camino no bueno:
29
A violent man puts desire of evil into his neighbour's mind, and makes him go in a way which is not good.
30 Cierra sus ojos para pensar perversidades; Mueve sus labios, efectúa el mal.
30
He whose eyes are shut is a man of twisted purposes, and he who keeps his lips shut tight makes evil come about.
31 Corona de honra es la vejez, Que se hallará en el camino de justicia.
31
The grey head is a crown of glory, if it is seen in the way of righteousness.
32 Mejor es el que tarde se aira que el fuerte; Y el que se enseñorea de su espíritu, que el que toma una ciudad.
32
He who is slow to be angry is better than a man of war, and he who has control over his spirit than he who takes a town.
33 La suerte se echa en el seno: Mas de Jehová es el juicio de ella.
33
A thing may be put to the decision of chance, but it comes about through the Lord.
