rumpelstiltskin:
thankyou for the responses :). Ive read proverbs with several translations but not the message so I'll have to get that.

Extol:
I highly recommend it Rumpelstiltskin. Obviously it has its flaws, but sometimes The Message just nails it. Here are a few from chapter 16, one of my favorite chapters in the book:

1. Mortals make elaborate plans,
      but GOD has the last word.

8. Far better to be right and poor
      than to be wrong and rich.

9. We plan the way we want to live,
        but only GOD makes us able to
           live it.

16. Get wisdom--it's worth more than
         money;
     Choose insight over income every
         time.

33. Make your motions and cast your
          votes,
      but GOD has the final say.
