义人的心愿，尽得好处。恶人的指望，致干忿怒。
The desire of the righteous is only good: but the expectation of the wicked is wrath.
有施散的，却更增添。有吝惜过度的，反致穷乏。
There is that scattereth, and yet increaseth; and there is that withholdeth more than is meet, but it tendeth to poverty.
好施舍的，必得丰裕。滋润人的，必得滋润。
The liberal soul shall be made fat: and he that watereth shall be watered also himself.
屯粮不卖的，民必咒诅他。情愿出卖的，人必为他祝福。
He that withholdeth corn, the people shall curse him: but blessing shall be upon the head of him that selleth it.
扰害己家的，必承受清风。愚昧人必作慧心人的仆人。
He that troubleth his own house shall inherit the wind: and the fool shall be servant to the wise of heart.
义人所结的果子，就是生命树。有智慧的必能得人。
The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life; and he that winneth souls is wise.
看哪，义人在世尚且受报，何况恶人和罪人呢。
Behold, the righteous shall be recompensed in the earth: much more the wicked and the sinner.
当将你的粮食撒在水面，因为日久必能得着。
Cast thy bread upon the waters: for thou shalt find it after many days.
你要分给七人，或分给八人，因为你不知道将来有什么灾祸临到地上。
Give a portion to seven, and also to eight; for thou knowest not what evil shall be upon the earth.
风从何道来，骨头在怀孕妇人的胎中如何长成，你尚且不得知道，这样，行万事之神的作为，你更不得知道。
As thou knowest not what is the way of the spirit, nor how the bones do grow in the womb of her that is with child: even so thou knowest not the works of God who maketh all.
