²⁸ He that hath no rule over his own spirit is like a city that is broken down, and without walls.

¹¹ A fool uttereth all his mind: but a wise man keepeth it in till afterwards.

²⁵ It is a snare to the man who devoureth that which is holy, and after vows to make enquiry.

⁵ The thoughts of the diligent tend only to plenteousness; but of every one that is hasty only to want.

⁸ Go not forth hastily to strive, lest thou know not what to do in the end thereof, when thy neighbour hath put thee to shame.
