Chap. XIX.


1   Better is a poore man, that walketh in his simplicitie, then a rich writhing his lippes, and vnwise. note


2   Where is no knowlege of the soule, is not good: and he that is hastie with his feete shal stumble. note


3   The follie of a man supplanteth his steppes: and he boileth in his minde against God. note


4   Riches adde manie frendes: but from the poore they also which he had are separated.


5   A false witnes shal not be vnpunished: & he that speaketh lies, shal not escape.


6   Manie worshipe the person of the mightie, and are frendes of him that geueth giftes. note


7   The brethren of the poore man hate him: more ouer also his frendes haue departed far from him. note

-- --


8   He that purseweth wordes only, shal haue nothing: but he that is possessour of the minde, loueth his soule, and the keper of prudence shal finde good thinges. note


9   A false witnesse shal not be vnpunished: and he that speaketh lies shal perish. note


10   Delicacies become not a foole: nor a seruant to rule ouer princes. note


11   The doctrine of man is knowen by patience: and his glorie is to ouer passe vniust thinges.


12   As the roaring of a lion, so also the anger of a king: and as dew vpon grasse, so also his cherefulnes.


13   The sorow of the father, a foolish sonne: and roofes continually dropping through, a woman ful of brawling.


14   House and riches are geuen of the parents: but of our Lord properly a prudent wife. note


15   Slothfulnesse bringeth drousinesse, and a dissolute soule shal be an hungred. note


16   He that kepeth the commandement, kepeth his soule: but he that neglecteth his way, shal die. note


17   He lendeth our Lord that hath mercie on the poore: and he wil repay him the like. note


18   Nurter thy sonne, despayre not: but to the killing of him set not thy soule. note


19   He that is impatient, shal susteyne damage: and when he shal take away violently, he shal adde an other thing. note


20   Heare counsel, and receiue discipline, that thou mayst be wise in thy later endes. note


21   Manie cogitations in the hart of a man: but the wil of our Lord shal be permanent. note


22   A needie man is merciful: and better is the poore then the lying man. note


23   The feare of our Lord vnto life: and in fulnes he shal abide, without the visitation most noysome.


24   The slothful hideth his hand vnder the armehole, neither doth he put it to his mouth. note


25   The pestilent man being whipped, the foole shal be wiser: but if thou rebuke a wiseman he wil vnderstand discipline. note


26   He that afflicteth his father, and fleeth from his mother, is ignominious and vnhappie. note


27   Cease not รด sonne to heare doctrine, neither be ignorant of the wordes of knowlege. note

-- --


28   An vniust witnes scorneth iudgement: and the mouth of the impious deuoureth iniquitie. note


29   Iudgements are prepared for scorners: & hammers striking for the bodies of fooles. note
