CHAP. XXV.
1 These are also Parables
of Salomon, which the note men of Hezekiah King
of Iudah note copied out.
2 The glorie of God is to note conceale a thing secret:
but the note Kings honour is to search out
a thing.
3 The heau&ebar;s in height, & the earth in deepenes,
and the note Kings heart can no man search out.
4 Take the note drosse from the siluer, and there
shall proceede a vessell for the finer.
5 Take note away the wicked from the King,
and his throne shall be stablished in righteousnes.
6 Boast not thy selfe before the King, and
stand not in the place of great men.
7 noteFor it is better, that it be saide vnto thee,
Come vp hither, then thou to be put lower in the
pres&ebar;ce of the prince whom thine eyes haue seene.
8 Goe not foorth hastily to strife, least thou
know not what to doe in the ende thereof, when
thy neighbour hath put thee to shame.
9 Debate thy matter with thy neighbour, and
discouer not the secret to another,
10 Least he that heareth it put thee to shame,
and thine infamie doe not note cease.
11 A word spoken in his place, is like apples of
golde with pictures of siluer.
12 He that reprooueth the wise, and the obedient
eare, is as a golden earering and an ornament
of fine golde.
-- --
A shrewde wife.
13 As the note colde of the snowe in the time of
haruest, so is a faithfull messenger to them that
send him: for he refresheth the soule of his masters.
14 A man that boasteth of false liberalitie, is
like note cloudes and winde without raine.
15 A Prince is pacified by staying note of anger,
and a soft tongue breaketh the note bones.
16 If thou haue found hony, eate that is note sufficient
for thee, least thou be ouerfull, & vomit it.
17 Withdrawe thy foote from thy neighbours
house, least he be weary of thee, and hate thee.
18 A man that beareth false witnes against his
neighbour, is like an hammer and a sword, and a
sharpe arrowe.
19 Confidence in an vnfaythfull man in time
of trouble, is like a broken tooth and a sliding
foote.
20 Hee that taketh away the garment in the
colde season, is like vineger powred vpon note note nitre,
or like him that singeth songs to an heauy heart.
21 noteIf hee that hateth thee be hungry, giue
him bread to eate, and if he be thirstie, giue him
water to drinke.
22 For thou shalt lay note coles vpon his head,
and the Lord shall recompense thee.
23 As the Northwinde driueth away the
raine, so doeth an angry countenance the slandering
tongue.
24 noteIt is better to dwell in a corner of the
house top, then with a contentious woman in a
wide house.
25 As are the colde waters to a weary soule,
so is good newes from a farre countery.
26 A righteous man falling downe before the
wicked, is like a troubled well, & a corrupt spring.
27 It is not good to eate much hony: note so to
search their owne glory is not glory.
28 A man that refraineth not his appetite, is
like a citie which is note broken downe and without
walles.
