Dlulisela

Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and they who indulge in it shall eat the fruit of it [for death or life]. [Matt. 12:37.]

The name of the Lord is a strong tower; the [consistently] righteous man [upright and in right standing with God] runs into it and is safe, high [above evil] and strong.

The man of many friends [a friend of all the world] will prove himself a bad friend, but there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother.

He who finds a [true] wife finds a good thing and obtains favor from the Lord. [Prov. 19:14; 31:10.]

He who answers a matter before he hears the facts–it is folly and shame to him. [John 7:51.]

A [self-confident] fool has no delight in understanding but only in revealing his personal opinions and himself.

Haughtiness comes before disaster, but humility before honor.
