14: For [it is] better [G2908][G1063] to trade for her [G1473][G1710], than [G2228] for gold [G5553] and [G2532] silver treasures [G2344].
15: more valuable than [G5093] And [G1161] she is stones [G3037] very costly [G4185]; and every [G3956][G1161] valuable [thing] [G5093] not [G3756] [equal] worth her [G1473] is .

17: the [G3588] Her ways [G3598][G1473] ways [G3598] [are] good [G2570], and [G2532] all [G3956] the [G3588] her paths [G5147][G1473] [are] in [G1722] peace [G1515].

20: In [G1722] his perception [G1473] abysses were torn [G4486], and clouds [G3509][G1161] flowed [G4482] dew .
21: O son [G5207], you should not [G3361] let it flow by [G3901]; but heed [G5083][G1161] my [G1699] counsel [G1012] and [G2532] insight [G1771]!

24: For if [G1437][G1063] you should sit down [G2521], you will be without fear ; and if [G1437][G1161] you should repose [G2518], with pleasure [G2234] you will sleep .
25: And [G2532] you will not [G3756] be afraid [G5399] of terror [G4423] coming upon [G1904], nor [G3761] thrusting [G3730] of impious coming upon [G1904].
26: For the [G3588][G1063] Boss '[G2962] will be over [G1909] all [G3956] your ways [G3598][G1473], and [G2532] he will establish [G2043] your [G4674] foot [G4228] that [G2443] you should not [G3361] be shaken [G4531].
27: You should not be [G3361] at a distance good [G2095] to do [G4160] [to the] one lacking [G1729], when [G2259] you should have [G2192] the [G3588] your hand [G5495][G1473] to help .

30: You should not [G3361] be fond of quarreling against [G4314] a man in vain [G3155], so that [G2443] not [G3361] against [G1519] you [G1473] he should work [G2038] evil [G2556].
31: You should not acquire [G3361][G2932] evils [G2556] of men's scorn [G3681], nor [G3366] should you be jealous [G2206] of the [G3588]ir ways [G3598][G1473].
