CHAP. X.
In this Chapter and all that folowe vnto the thirtieth, the wise
man exhorteth by diuers sentences, which he calleth Parables,
to followe vertue, and flee vice: and sheweth also what
profite commeth of wisedome, and what hinderance proceedeth
of folishnes.
The parables of Salomon.

foolish sonne is an heauines to his mother.
2 The treasures of wickednesse note profite nothing:
but righteousnesse deliuereth from death.

righteous: but he casteth away the substance of
the wicked.
4 A note slouthfull hand maketh poore: but the
hand of the diligent maketh riche.
5 He that gathereth in sommer, is the sonne
of wisdome: but he that sleepeth in haruest, is the
sonne of confusion.
6 Blessings are vpon the head of the righteous:
but iniquitie shall couer the mouth of note the
wicked.
7 The memoriall of the iust shalbe blessed: but
the name of the wicked shall note rotte.
8 The wise in heart will receiue commandements:

but he þt; peruerteth his wayes, shalbe knowen.
10 He that note winketh with the eye, worketh
sorowe, & he þt; is note foolish in talke, shalbe beaten.
11 The mouth of a righteous man is a welspring
of life: but iniquitie couereth the mouth of
the wicked.
12 Hatred stirreth vp contentions: note but loue
couereth all trespasses.
13 In the lippes of him that hath vnderstanding
wisdome is founde, and note a rod shalbe for the
backe of him that is destitute of wisedome.
14 Wise men lay vp knowledge: but þe; mouth
of the foole is a present destruction.
15 The riche mans goodes are his note strong citie:
but the feare of the needie is their pouertie.
16 The labour of the righteous tendeth to life:
but the reuenues of the wicked to sinne.
17 He that regardeth instruction, is in the way
of life: but he that refuseth correction, goeth out
of the way.
18 He that dissembleth hatred with lying lips,
and he that inuenteth slaunder, is a foole.
19 In many wordes there cannot want iniquitie:
but he that refrayneth his lippes, is wise.
20 The tongue of the iust man is as fined siluer:
but the heart of the wicked is litle worth.
21 The lippes of the righteous doe note feede many:
but fooles shall die for want of wisedome.
22 The blessing of the Lorde, it maketh riche,
and he doeth adde note no sorowes with it.
23 It is as a pastime to a foole to doe wickedly:
but wisedome is vnderstanding to a man.
24 That which the wicked feareth, shal come
vpon him: but God wil graunt the desire of the
righteous.
25 As the whirlewinde passeth, so is the wicked
no more: but the righteous is as an euerlasting
foundation.
26 As vineger is to the teeth, and as smoke to
the eyes, so is the slouthful to them that note send him.
27 The feare of the Lord increaseth the dayes:
but the yeeres of the wicked note shalbe diminished.
28 The patient abiding of the righteous shal
be gladnesse: but the hope of the wicked shall
perish.
29 The way of the Lord is strength to the vpright
man: but feare shall be for the workers of
iniquitie.
30 The righteous shall note neuer be remooued:
but the wicked shall not dwell in the land.
31 The mouth of the iust shall be fruitfull in
wisdome: but the tongue of the froward shall be
cut out.
32 The lips of the righteous knowe what is
Mercie and liberalitie.

froward things.
