Proverbs 3:3-4
Don't lose your grip on Love and Loyalty. Tie them around your neck; carve their initials on your heart. Earn a reputation for living well in God's eyes and the eyes of the people.
Another proverb piece. This one is based on our 'Speak of the Devil' and the polish 'Speak of the wolf'.
Bible verse: The king’s heart is in the hand of the LORD, as the rivers of water: he turns it wherever he will. – Proverbs 21:1
When reading this verse, I can feel the authority by which God rules all things. He examines our heart and spirit, deeply knows the thoughts of every one of us. Also, I can see God’s sovereignty and arrangement in our daily international relationships or our behavior and conduct. Just as God says, “The heart and spirit of man are held in the hand of God, and all the life of man is beheld in the eyes of God. Regardless of whether or not you believe this, any and all things, living or dead, will shift, change, renew, and disappear according to God’s thoughts. This is how God rules over all things.” Hence, every time when we have a conflict, complaint and misunderstanding with people around us, we should come before God to seek His will. Just as His words say, “If you believe in the dominion of God, then you must believe that the things that happen every day, be they good or bad, don’t happen accidentally. It is not that someone doesn’t get on with you or opposes you on purpose; it is actually all arranged by God and He orchestrates everything. What does God orchestrate everything for? It is not to reveal your shortcomings for everyone to see or to expose you; exposing you is not the final aim. The aim is to perfect you and save you. How does God perfect you and save you? Firstly, He makes you aware of your own corrupt disposition, your own nature and essence, your own shortcomings and what you lack. Only by knowing these things and understanding them in your heart can you cast them off—this is a God-given opportunity. You must learn to seize this opportunity and know how to seize it; don’t lock horns and don’t resist. If you are always competing with the people, events, and things that God has arranged around you, if you are always trying to extricate yourself from them, always feeling dissatisfied, always harboring a disagreeable mentality and always misunderstanding, then you will find it very difficult to enter into the truth. Through obeying, seeking, praying more, retreating to your spirit and coming before God then, unbeknownst to you, a change will happen in your inner condition. When you are having a change, the reality of the truth is being wrought in you, and you will then progress and will see a change in the conditions of your life. When you have this change, and this kind of reality of the truth, then you will have stature, and with stature comes life.”
From God’s word we can see that, the people, matters and things around us are arranged by God. The goal is to have us learn some lessons and know our shortcomings and deficiencies, then we practice on the basis of God’s words, this will satisfy His will. No matter what happens, we will surely gain the most practical profit when we understand His will, have true knowledge of Him, and know ourselves. Having a normal relationship with God also naturally results in normal relationships with other people. This verse is of great importance and reminds us to accept things from God and come before Him.

Mana sayang, bunga sa-chepir, bunga sa-kaki? -- bidalmelayu.wordpress.com/2010/07/18/mana-sayang-bunga-sa...
"Train a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not turn from it".
"Instruye al niño en su camino, Y aun cuando fuere viejo no se apartará de él".
聞いて極楽、見て地獄
Heaven in words, Hell when you see it. (Japanese mistrust of words, sight as final judgement)
下手の長談義
The useless blather (Useless people blather. Again Japanese mistrust, and liw evalution of words, at least when there is too many of them.) [There are related English idioms, such as "blathering idiot".]
旅は道連れ、世は情け
Companions make travel, sympathy is the spice of life. (The Japanese are aware that rekationships are important, but they are no pushover. Think Sioux.)
年寄りの冷や水
Fogie's Fearlessness (or rather recklessness, include less for interest than because it describes me, and quite a few Japanese of elevated age. Build your cities of the edge of Vesuvius...)
律儀者の子沢山
The fruitfulness of the righteous (Upstanding guys are liked and so have lot of children. Japanese women have good taste. Does the reason for the low birth rate lie in the lack of upstanding Japanese guys? What does Jrighteous mean? )
縁は異なもの、味なもの
Love is idiosyncratic, and tasty. (The opposite of "birds of a feather..." In Japanese there is an equivalent similarities attract proverb, 類は友を呼ぶ, but it is confined to, and experimentally it is not found to be very true of, Japanese friendship. The titular proverb refers to the fate which binds men and women which may be more difference-seeking among Japanese procreators at least. Perhaps the recent Western focus upon similarity is another reason for the low Japanese birthrate. C.f. HLA dissimilarity. )
