良言如蜂房、甘於心、暢於骨、

智者斥責、於順受之耳、如金製耳環、與精金物飾、

貴於珍珠、凡可慕者、無足比擬、

義者之舌、有如佳銀、惡者之心、所值無幾、義者之脣、以育眾庶、愚者乏識、陷於死亡、

然未嘗信之、何由籲之、未嘗聞之、何由信之、未有宣者、何由聞之、未有遣者、何由宣之、如經云、報諸善之嘉音者、其步履美何如耶、

蓋智慧愈於珍珠、凡可慕者、無足比擬、

應對得當、自覺歡欣、言語適時、何其嘉美、

惟智慧何處可尋、明哲之所安在、其值人不之知、生人之地、亦不得見、深淵曰、不在我中、滄海曰、不與我偕、不能以金購之、不能衡銀、以為其值、俄斐之金、紅玉碧玉、不足較其值、黃金琉璃、不能為其匹、精金之器、不足與之易、珊瑚水晶、俱無足論、智慧之值、愈於珍珠、古實黃玉、不足與之比、精金不足較其值、

傳道者既智、則以知識誨民、尋思考察、廣序箴言、傳道者搜索嘉言、循正直而書實語、智者之言若刺、會師之言、其牢若釘、皆為一牧所賜、

心慧者謂之通明、甘言增人學問、

穢言勿出口、惟於人之所需、以善言建之、致恩及聽者、

得智慧愈於得金、獲明哲愈於獲銀、

智者之口、播揚知識、愚者之心、出發不義、
