man pursueth: but the
righteous are bolde as a
lyon.
2
For the transgression
A wicked ruler.
of a land, many are the princes thereof: note
but by a man of vnderstanding and
knowledge the state thereof shall bee prolonged.
3
A poore man that oppresseth the
poore, is like a sweeping raine note which
leaueth no food.
4
They that forsake the law, praise
the wicked: but such as keepe the Law,
contend with them.
5
Euill men vnderstand not iudgement:
but they that seeke the Lord,
vnderstand all things.
6
noteBetter is the poore that walketh
in his vprightnesse, then he that is peruerse
in his wayes, though he be rich.
7
noteWhoso keepeth the law, is a wise
sonne: but he that note is a companion of
riotous men, shameth his father.
8
noteHe that by vsurie and note vniust
gaine increaseth his substance, he shall
gather it for him that wil pity the poore.

He that turneth away his eare
from hearing the law, euen his prayer
shalbe abomination.
10
noteWho so causeth the righteous to
goe astray in an euill way, he shall fall
himselfe into his owne pit: but the vpright
shall haue good things in possession.
11
The rich man is wise note in his owne
conceit: but the poore that hath vnderstanding
searcheth him out.
12
noteWhen righteous men do reioyce,
there is great glory: but when the wicked
rise, a man is note hidden.

not prosper: but who so confesseth and
forsaketh them, shall haue mercie.
14

but he that hardeneth his heart,
shall fall into mischiefe.
15
As a roaring lyon and a ranging
beare: so is a wicked ruler ouer the
poore people.
16
The prince that wanteth vnderstanding,
is also a great oppressour: but
he that hateth couetousnesse, shall prolong
his dayes.
17
noteA man that doth violence to the
blood of any person, shall flie to the pit,
let no man stay him.
18
noteWhoso walketh vprightly, shall
be saued: but he that is peruerse in his
wayes, shall fall at once.
19

plentie of bread: but he that followeth
after vaine persons, shall haue pouerty
enough.
-- --
An euill eye.
20
A faithfull man shall abound
with blessings: note but hee that maketh
haste to be rich, shall not be note innocent.
21
noteTo haue respect of persons, is
not good: for, for a piece of bread that
man will transgresse.
22
noteHe that hasteth to bee rich, hath
an euill eye, and considereth not that
pouerty shall come vpon him.
23
noteHe that rebuketh a man, afterwards
shall find more fauour, then he
that flattereth with the tongue.
24
Who so robbeth his father or his
mother, and saith, it is no transgression,
the same is the companion of note a destroyer.
25
noteHe that is of a proud heart, stirreth
vp strife: but he that putteth his
trust in the Lord, shalbe made fat.
26
Hee that trusteth in his owne
heart, is a foole: but who so walketh
wisely, he shall be deliuered.
27
noteHe that giueth vnto the poore,
shall not lacke: but he that hideth his
eyes, shall haue many a curse.
28
noteWhen the wicked rise, men hide
themselues: but when they perish, the
righteous increase.
