1 There are three things in which I take special delight — things that are beautiful to the Lord and human beings alike:brothers who get along with each other,neighbours who are friends,and a married couple who are happy together.
2 There are three kinds of people I cannot stand, whose behaviour I find highly offensive:poor people who are arrogant,rich people who lie,and foolish old men who commit adultery.
3 Unless you learn what you can while you are young, you will never be wise when you reach old age.
4 Sound judgement, good advice, and grey hair go together beautifully.
