¹⁴君王的震怒，是死讯的使者；但是智慧人，能平息王怒。	¹⁴The wrath of a king is as messengers of death: and the wise man will pacify it.
¹⁵君王容光焕发，人即可活命；君王的恩泽，有如春云时雨。	¹⁵In the cheerfulness of the king's countenance is life: and his clemency is like the latter rain.
¹⁶获得智慧，胜于获得黄金；获得智识，胜于获得白银。	¹⁶Get wisdom, because it is better than gold: and purchase prudence, for it is more precious than silver.
¹⁷正直人的行径远离邪恶，谨守行为的人必确保生命。	¹⁷The path of the just departeth from evils: he that keepeth his soul keepeth his way.

²³智慧人的心，使自己的嘴灵巧，使自己的唇舌，更具说服力。	²³The heart of the wise shall instruct his mouth: and shall add grace to his lips.
²⁴亲切的言语，有如蜂蜜，使心灵愉快，使筋骨舒畅。	²⁴Well ordered words are as a honeycomb: sweet to the soul, and health to the bones.
²⁵有些道路，看来正直；走到尽头，却是死路。	²⁵There is a way that seemeth to a man right: and the ends thereof lead to death.
²⁶工人的胃口，催他劳作；一人的口腹，迫他工作。	²⁶The soul of him that laboureth, laboureth for himself, because his mouth hath obliged him to it.
²⁷无赖之徒，图谋邪恶；他的嘴上，似有火烧。	²⁷The wicked man diggeth evil, and in his lips is a burning fire.
