1Great travail is created for every man, and an heavy yoke is upon the sons of Adam, from the day that they go out of their mother’s womb, till the day that they return to the mother of all things. 2Their imagination of things to come, and the day of death, trouble their thoughts, and…
1O death, how bitter is the remembrance of thee to a man that liveth at rest in his possessions, unto the man that hath nothing to vex him, and that hath prosperity in all things: yea, unto him that is yet able to receive meat! 2O death, acceptable is thy sentence unto the needy, and…
1But he that giveth his mind to the law of the most High, and is occupied in the meditation thereof, will seek out the wisdom of all the ancient, and be occupied in prophecies. 2He will keep the sayings of the renowned men: and where subtil parables are, he will be there also. 3He will…
1Honour a physician with the honour due unto him for the uses which ye may have of him: for the Lord hath created him. 2For of the most High cometh healing, and he shall receive honour of the king. 3The skill of the physician shall lift up his head: and in the sight of great…

1He that keepeth the law bringeth offerings enough: he that taketh heed to the commandment offereth a peace offering. 2He that requiteth a goodturn offereth fine flour; and he that giveth alms sacrificeth praise. 3To depart from wickedness is a thing pleasing to the Lord; and to forsake unrighteousness is a propitiation. 4Thou shalt not…
1There shall no evil happen unto him that feareth the Lord; but in temptation even again he will deliver him. 2A wise man hateth not the law; but he that is an hypocrite therein is as a ship in a storm. 3A man of understanding trusteth in the law; and the law is faithful unto…
1The hopes of a man void of understanding are vain and false: and dreams lift up fools. 2Whoso regardeth dreams is like him that catcheth at a shadow, and followeth after the wind. 3The vision of dreams is the resemblance of one thing to another, even as the likeness of a face to a face….
1If thou be made the master of a feast, lift not thyself up, but be among them as one of the rest; take diligent care for them, and so sit down. 2And when thou hast done all thy office, take thy place, that thou mayest be merry with them, and receive a crown for thy…
