1 Lažna su merila mrska Gospodu, a prava mera ugodna Mu je.
1 A false balance is an abomination to Yahweh, but accurate weights are his delight.
2 Kad dođe oholost, dođe i sramota; a u smernih je mudrost
2 When pride comes, then comes shame, but with humility comes wisdom.

11 By the blessing of the upright, the city is exalted, but it is overthrown by the mouth of the wicked.
12 Bezumnik se ruga bližnjemu svom, a razuman čovek ćuti.
12 One who despises his neighbor is void of wisdom, but a man of understanding holds his peace.
13 Opadač tumarajući izdaje tajnu; a ko je verna srca, taji stvar.

24 Jedan prosipa, i sve više ima; a drugi tvrduje suviše, i sve je siromašniji.
24 There is one who scatters, and increases yet more. There is one who withholds more than is appropriate, but gains poverty.
