Be not jealous over the wife of thy bosom, and teach her not an evil lesson against thyself.

Give not thy soul unto a woman to set her feet upon thy substance.

Go not unto a harlot, lest thou fall into her snares.

Use not the company of a woman that is a singer, lest thou be taken by her allurements.

Gaze not upon a maid, lest her beauty be a stumblingblock to thee.

Give not thy soul unto harlots, lest thou destroy thine inheritance.

Look not round about thee in the streets of the city, neither wander thou in the solitary places thereof.

Turn away thine eye from a beautiful woman; and look not upon another's beauty.

For many have been deceived by the beauty of a woman; for hereby lust is kindled as a fire.

Every harlot shall be trodden down as dung in the street.

Many have been corrupted by the beauty of a strange woman; for conversation with her burneth as fire.

Sit not at all with a married woman, neither sit with her upon thine arm.

And be not a companion with her at wine, lest thine heart incline unto her, and so through thy desire thou fallest into destruction.

Forsake not an old friend; for the new is not comparable to him: for a new friend is as new wine; when it is old, thou shalt drink it with pleasure.

A new friend is as new wine; when it is old, thou shalt drink it with pleasure.

Envy not the glory of a sinner: for thou knowest not what his end shall be.

Be not well pleased with the prosperity of the ungodly; remember that they shall not be justified even in hell.

Keep thee far from the man that hath power to kill; so shalt thou not doubt the fear of death.

And if thou come near unto him, offend not, lest he take away thy life.

Be it known to thee that thou goest in the midst of snares, and that thou walkest upon the battlements of the city.

Prove thy neighbour what thou canst; and consult with the wise.

Let thy meat be with the righteous and let thy glory be in the fear of the Lord.

Let thy conversation be with the intelligent, and all thy discourse in the law of the Most High.

The work of the artificer is commended when they put forth their hands; but the prince of the people is wise on account of his word.

A man full of tongue is feared in his city; and he that is rash in his talk shall be hateful.
