Take care of yourself and don't take on other people's responsibilities, don't be lazy, and prepare yourself in the good times to be ready for the bad.  God hates nothing more than dishonesty and inciting hatred to take advantage of others. 
Don't stray after enticements of the selfish that only want to take advantage of you.  Stay on the path before you, on the path of those who truly love you.
Once you are on the path of wisdom, keep your eye on the goal! Don't veer off or get enticed to leave the path!
The teacher exhorts his student to follow the right path by using himself as an example.
Look around you, it was with wisdom that the world was created, follow wisdom with humility, and you will be truly blessed by God.
Follow the path of Wisdom to true peace, true satisfaction, and true success.
Listen to wisdom, for the path of wisdom will protect you from lies and from enticement. In the end, only the honest and straight will remain.
The path to justice and righteousness begins with knowledge, seeking the truth, and humility.
Listen to wisdom, she calls to you in public, she will save you from disaster.  Don't ignore her advice, or you will suffer the inevitable results of your ignorance.
Don't reject the simple wisdom of your parents as you embark on your journey in life, and avoid the temptations of those who lead a life seeking only profiting from others.
We introduce and begin the study of  the Book of Proverbs, Solomon's collection of wisdom for the ages.  
Jeremiah laments the destruction, and God's abandonment of the people. He ends by begging God to bring us back, so that we can have another chance to return to Him.
Jeremiah laments the decline and destruction of the people of Jerusalem. Those who shone with beauty like gold, have withered into suffering and starvation.
There is hope, because it is within our ability to correct injustice.  
Jeremiah recounts his own terrible suffering he has borne while trying to deliver God's message.  But despite the seeming futility of his daunting task, he refuses to give up on hope.
Jeremiah warns the people by describing the terrible destruction of Jerusalem and the Temple. Don't have faith in a building, as God's wrath will not spare you unless you change your ways.
Jeremiah laments the reliance on political strength and alliances, as when the day comes they will turn on Judea. We have rebelled against God, and nothing can save us other than God.
We introduce the book of Eichah as Jeremiah's prophecy of what will come if we do not heed his exhortations and change our ways.  The image of a potential disastrous future is used to inspire people to change.
Remember during the boom times to use it well, because the times of bust are coming. In the end, there is purpose to it all.
Spread goodness without restriction, because what goes around, comes around.  Don't keep waiting for the right moment to do something good, as no moment is better than right now.
