Don't boast about what you're going to do tomorrow, because you don't know what the day may bring.

Let others praise you, not you yourself; someone else, not you personally.

Stone may be heavy, and sand may weigh a lot, but the annoyance caused by stupid people is the biggest burden of all.

Open criticism is better than hidden love.

Don't give up on your friends or your family's friends. Don't go to a relative's house when you've got trouble. A friend nearby is more useful than a relative far away.

Just as a crucible tests silver, and a furnace tests gold, people are tested by the praise they receive.
22 Neginagi vahe'mofona neginagi avu'ava atresiegura, havereti witima refuzafupeno hona'a hareankna hunka zmahegahananagi, ana neginagi zamavu'zamava'ma nehaza zampintira, zamazeri otregahane.
Even if you ground stupid people in a mortar, crushing them like grain with the pestle, you can't get rid of stupidity from them.

You should know the condition of your flocks really well and take good care of your herds,
24 Na'ankure, fenozamo'a mevava osanigeno, ragima eri'zamo'a mago naga nofitera meno ovugahie.
for wealth doesn't last forever—is a crown passed down through all generations?
25 Trazama akafri atresigeno'ma kasefa hagesigeno agonaregati trazana erinoma ufresigeno'a,
Once the hay is cut, and the new growth begins, and fodder from the mountains is gathered,
26 sipisipi afu'mo'zane meme afu'mo'za nenesageno, sipisipi afumofona azoka'aretira kukena hatino nentanino, meme afura mopama mizasega'are zagorera atreno zagoa erigahie.
