7 Markii Rabbigu ku farxo nin jidadkiis, Wuxuu nabad dhex dhigaa isaga iyo xataa cadaawayaashiisa.
When the way that people live pleases the Lord, he makes even their enemies be at peace with them.
8 Wax yar oo xaqnimo la jirto Ayaa ka wanaagsan wax badan oo kordha oo xaqdarro la jirto.
Better to have just a little and be honest than to have a lot and be dishonest.
9 Nin walba qalbigiisaa jidkiisa u fiirsada, Laakiinse Rabbigaa tallaabooyinkiisa toosiya.

If you pay attention to wise instruction you will do well; you'll be happy if you trust in the Lord.
21 Kii qalbigiisu caqli leeyahay waxaa loogu yeedhi doonaa mid miyir leh, Oo bushimaha macaankooduna waxbarashuu kordhiyaa.
If you think wisely you'll be called perceptive; if you speak pleasantly you'll be persuasive.

Gray hair is a glorious crown; it's achieved by living right.
32 Kii cadhada u gaabiyaa waa ka wanaagsan yahay kii xoog badan, Oo kii ruuxiisa xukumaana waa ka wanaagsan yahay kii magaalo qabsada.
Better to be slow to anger than to be powerful, better to have self-control than to conquer a town.
33 Saamiga waxaa lagu tuuraa dhabta, Laakiinse go'aankiisa oo dhan Rabbigaa leh.
The lot is thrown into the lap, but the Lord makes every decision.
