CHAP. XIX.
1 noteBetter is the poor that walketh
in his integrity, than he that is perverse
in his lips, and is a fool.
2 Also, that the soul be without knowledge,
it is not good; and he that hasteth
with his feet sinneth.
3 The foolishness of man perverteth
his way: and his heart fretteth against
the Lord.
4 noteWealth maketh many friends; but
the poor is separated from his neighbor.
5 noteA false witness shall not be note unpunished,
and he that speaketh lies shall
not escape.
6 Many will entreat the favor of the
prince: and every man is a friend to note
him that giveth gifts.
7 noteAll the brethren of the poor do
hate him: how much more do his friends
go far from him? he pursueth them with
words, yet they are wanting to him.
8 He that getteth note wisdom loveth his
own soul: he that keepeth understanding
shall find good.
9 noteA false witness shall not be unpunished,
and he that speaketh lies shall perish.
10 Delight is not seemly for a fool;
much less note for a servant to have rule
over princes.
11 noteThe note discretion of a man deferreth
his anger; and it is his glory to pass
over a transgression.
12 noteThe king's wrath is as the roaring
of a lion; but his favor is as dew
upon the grass.
13 noteA foolish son is the calamity of
his father: note and the contentions of a
wife are a continual dropping.
14 House and riches are the inheritance
of fathers: and note a prudent wife is
from the Lord.
15 Slothfulness casteth into a deep
sleep; and an idle soul note shall suffer
hunger.
16 noteHe that keepeth the commandment
keepeth his own soul; but he that
despiseth his ways shall die.
17 noteHe that hath pity upon the poor,
lendeth to the Lord; and note that which
he hath given will he pay him again.
18 noteChasten thy son while there is
hope, and let not thy soul spare note for his
crying.
19 A man of great wrath shall suffer
punishment: for if thou deliver him, yet
thou must note do it again.
20 Hear counsel, and receive instruction,
that thou mayest be wise in thy latter
end.
21 noteThere are many devices in a man's
heart; nevertheless the counsel of the
Lord, that shall stand.
22 The desire of a man is his kindness:
and a poor man is better than a liar.
23 The fear of the Lord tendeth to
life: and he that hath it shall abide satisfied;
he shall not be visited with evil.
24 noteA slothful man hideth his hand
in his bosom, and will not so much as
bring it to his mouth again.
25 noteSmite a scorner and the simple note
will beware: and reprove one that hath
understanding, and he will understand
knowledge.
26 He that wasteth his father, and
chaseth away his mother, is a son that
causeth shame, and bringeth reproach.
27 Cease, my son, to hear the instruction
that causeth to err from the words
of knowledge.
28 noteAn ungodly witness scorneth judgment:
and the mouth of the wicked devoureth
iniquity.
29 Judgments are prepared for scorners,
and stripes for the back of fools.
