1 melior est pauper qui ambulat in simplicitate sua quam torquens labia insipiens
1 Better is a poor man, that goeth in his simpleness, than a rich man biting his lips, and unwise. (Better is a poor person, who goeth in his honesty, or in his integrity, than a rich person biting his lips, and unwise.)
2 ubi non est scientia animae non est bonum et qui festinus est pedibus offendit
2 Where is not knowing of the soul, there is not good; and he that is hasty, in feet hurteth. (A mind without knowledge is not good; and he who is hasty with his feet, sinneth.)

3 The folly of a man deceiveth his steps (A person's foolishness perverteth his own way); and he burneth in his soul against God.

5 testis falsus non erit inpunitus et qui mendacia loquitur non effugiet
5 A false witness shall not be unpunished; and he that speaketh leasings, shall not escape. (A lying witness shall not go unpunished; and he who speaketh lies, shall not escape.)
6 multi colunt personam potentis et amici sunt dona tribuenti
6 Many men honour the person of a mighty man; and they be friends of him that dealeth (out) gifts.
7 fratres hominis pauperis oderunt eum insuper et amici procul recesserunt ab eo qui tantum verba sectatur nihil habebit

8 qui autem possessor est mentis diligit animam suam et custos prudentiae inveniet bona

11 doctrina viri per patientiam noscitur et gloria eius est iniqua praetergredi
11 The teaching of a man is known by patience; and his glory is to pass over wicked things. (Patience showeth a person's wisdom, or the lack of it; and a person's glory is to overlook a wrong.)
12 sicut fremitus leonis ita et regis ira et sicut ros super herbam ita hilaritas eius
12 As the gnashing of a lion, so and the ire of the king; and as dew on herb, so and the gladness of the king. (Like the gnashing of a lion, is the king's anger; and like the dew on the grass, is the king's gladness.)
13 dolor patris filius stultus et tecta iugiter perstillantia litigiosa mulier

14 domus et divitiae dantur a patribus a Domino autem proprie uxor prudens
14 Houses and riches be given of father and mother; but a prudent wife is given properly of the Lord. (Houses and riches be given to thee by thy father and mother; but a prudent wife cometh only from the Lord.)

17 feneratur Domino qui miseretur pauperis et vicissitudinem suam reddet ei

(Fear of the Lord leadeth to life; and he who feareth God shall live amidst plenty, without the visiting of the adversary./Reverence for the Lord leadeth to life; and he who revereth God shall live amidst plenty, without the assailing of great evil.)
