¶ The .xij. Chapter.
A Who so loueth wysdome, wyll be c&obar;t&ebar;t
to be refourmed: but he þe; hateth
to be reproued, is a foole. noteA good
man is acceptable vnto the Lorde,
but the wycked ymaginer will he c&obar;dempne.
A man cannot endure in vngodlynesse, but
-- --
the rote of the ryghteous shall not be moued.
A huswifly wom&abar; is &rhand; a crowne vnto her
husbande: but she that behaueth her selfe vnhonestly,
is a corrupci&obar; in hys bones. The
thoughtes of the ryghteous are ryght, but
the ymaginacion of the vngodly are disceatfull.
The talkynge of the vngodly is howe
they maye laye wayte for bloud, but þe; mouth
of the ryghteous wyll deliuer them. noteGod
ouer turneth the estate of the wycked ∧ they
B
stande not: but the house of þe; ryghteous shall
stande steadfaste. A man shalbe comm&ebar;ded
for hys wysdome, but a fole shalbe despysed.
noteA symple man which laboureth
and worketh, is better then one that is gorgyous
and lacketh bread. A ryghteous m&abar;
regardeth the lyfe of hys catell, but the vngodly
haue cruel hertes. noteHe that tylleth
his lande, shall haue plenteousnesse of bread:
but he þt; foloweth ydylnes: is a very foole.
(who so hath pleasure to c&obar;tinue at the wyne, leaueth dishonesse
in hys awne dwellynge.) The desyre of þe; vngodly
hunteth after myschefe, but the rote of
the ryghteous br&ibar;geth forth fruyte. The
wycked falleth into the snare thorow þe; malyce
of hys awne mouth, but the iust shall eschape
out of parell. Euery m&abar; shall enioye
good accordynge to the frute of hys mouth,
and after the workes of hys handes shall he
be rewarded. Loke what a foole taketh in
hande, he thynketh it well done: but he that
is wyse, wyll be counceled. A foole vttereth
hys wrath in all the haste, but a discrete
man couerith wronge.
C A iust man wyll
tell the trueth, and shewe the thynge that is
ryght: but a false witnesse disceaueth. A
sclaunderous person prycketh lyke a swerde
but a wyse mans tonge is wholsome.
A trewe mouth is euer c&obar;stant, but a dissemblynge
tonge is soone cha&ubar;ged. They that
ymagyn euell in theyr mynde, wyll disceaue:
but the co&ubar;celers of peace, shall haue ioye folowynge
them. There shall no mysfortune
happ&ebar; vnto the iust, but the vngodly shalbe
fylled with misery. noteThe Lorde abhorreth
lyinge lyppes, but they that laboure for
trueth please hym. He that hath vnderstandynge,
&rhand; doth hyde wysdome: but an vndiscrete
herte telleth out hys folyshnesse.
D A diligent hande shall beare rule, but the
ydle shalbe vnder tribute. noteHeuynesse discorageth
the herte of man, but a good worde
maketh it glad agayne. The ryghteous
excelleth hys neygboure, but the waye of the
vngodly wyll disceaue them selues.
The disceytfull man shall not roste, that
he toke in h&ubar;tynge, note but the riches of the iuste
man is of great valewe. In the waye
of ryghteousnesse there is lyfe, and in the same
waye there is no death.
