¹Dochvammey je 'oH proverbs vo' Solomon, nuq the loDpu' vo' Hezekiah joH vo' Judah copied pa'.

²'oH ghaH the batlh vo' joH'a' Daq conceal a Doch, 'ach the batlh vo' joHpu' ghaH Daq search pa' a matter.

³As the chal vaD height, je the tera' vaD depth, vaj the tIQDu' vo' joHpu' 'oH unsearchable.

⁴tlhap DoH the Dochmey lI'be' vo' the baS chIS, je material choltaH pa' vaD the refiner;

⁶yImev exalt SoH'egh Daq the Daq vo' the joH, joq claim a Daq among Dun loDpu';

⁷vaD 'oH ghaH better vetlh 'oH taH ja'ta' Daq SoH, “ ghoS Dung naDev,” than vetlh SoH should taH lan lower Daq the Daq vo' the joHHom, 'Iv lIj mInDu' ghaj leghpu'.

⁸yImev taH hasty Daq bringing charges Daq bo'DIj. nuq DichDaq SoH ta' Daq the pItlh ghorgh lIj jIl shames SoH?

⁹Debate lIj case tlhej lIj jIl, je yImev magh the confidence vo' another;

¹⁰lest wa' 'Iv hears 'oH lan SoH Daq tuH, je lIj qab reputation never mej.

¹¹A mu' fitly jatlhpu' ghaH rur apples vo' SuD baS Daq settings vo' baS chIS.

¹²As an earring vo' SuD baS, je an ornament vo' fine SuD baS, vaj ghaH a val reprover Daq an loblu'taH qogh.

¹³As the cold vo' chuchHommey Daq the poH vo' harvest, vaj ghaH a voqmoH messenger Daq chaH 'Iv ngeH ghaH; vaD ghaH refreshes the qa' vo' Daj masters.

¹⁴As clouds je SuS Hutlh rain, vaj ghaH ghaH 'Iv boasts vo' gifts deceptively.

¹⁵Sum patience a ruler ghaH persuaded. A soft jat breaks the bone.

¹⁶ghaj SoH tu'ta' honey? Sop as 'ar as ghaH sufficient vaD SoH, lest SoH Sop too 'ar, je vomit 'oH.

¹⁷chaw' lIj qam taH seldom Daq lIj neighbor's tuq, lest ghaH taH Doy' vo' SoH, je hate SoH.

¹⁸A loD 'Iv nob false testimony Daq Daj jIl ghaH rur a club, a 'etlh, joq a sharp puv DuQwI'.

¹⁹Confidence Daq someone unfaithful Daq poH vo' Seng ghaH rur a qab tooth, joq a lame qam.

²⁰As wa' 'Iv takes DoH a garment Daq cold weather, joq vinegar Daq soda, vaj ghaH wa' 'Iv bomtaH bommey Daq a 'ugh tIq.

²²vaD SoH DichDaq heap coals vo' qul Daq Daj nach, je joH'a' DichDaq pop SoH.

²³The pemHov nIH SuS brings vo' rain: vaj a backbiting jat brings an angry qab.

²⁴'oH ghaH better Daq yIn Daq the corner vo' the housetop, than Daq share a tuq tlhej a contentious be'.

²⁵rur cold bIQ Daq a thirsty qa', vaj ghaH QaQ news vo' a Hop Hatlh.

²⁶rur a muddied spring, je a polluted QaQ, vaj ghaH a QaQtaHghach loD 'Iv nob way qaSpa' the mIgh.

²⁷'oH ghaH ghobe' QaQ Daq Sop 'ar honey; ghobe' ghaH 'oH honorable Daq nej one's ghaj quv.
