Chap. XIX.
note
An admonition against drunkennes, luxurie, 4. light suspition, 7. and
detraction. 13. Freindlie correption is necessarie, 23. and sincere humilitie.
27. Exterior carege is a signe of internal disposition.
1 A workman that is a drunkard shal not be rich: and he
notethat contemneth smal thinges, shal fal by litle and litle.
2 Wine and wemen make wisemen to apostatate, and shal
reproue the prudent:
3 and he that ioyneth himself to harlotes,
shal be naught. Rottennes and wormes shal inherite
him, and he shal be lifted vp for a greater example, and his
life shal be taken out of the number.
4 He that geueth credite
quickly, is light of hart, and shal be lessened: and he shal more
ouer be counted one that sinneth against his owne soule.
5 He that reioyceth in iniquitie, shal be reprehended, and he
that hateth chastisement, shal be diminished of life: and he
that hateth babbling, extinguisheth malice.
6 He that sinneth
against his owne soule, shal repent: and he that is delighted in
-- --
naughtinesse, shal be reprehended.
7 Iterate not a wicked
and hard word, and thou shalt not be lessened.
8 To freind
and foe tel not thy minde: and if thou haue sinne, note disclose it
not.
9 For he wil heare thee, and wil watch thee, and as it
were defending the sinne he wil hate thee, and so wil he be
present with thee alwaies.
10 Hast thou heard a word against
thy neighbour? let it die together in thee, trusting that it wil
not burst thee.
11 At the presence of a word the foole traueleth,
as the groning of the childbirth of an infant.
12 An arrow
stickt in the thigh of flesh: so is a word in the hart of a foole.
13 Rebuke a freind, lest perhapes he hath not vnderstood, and
say: I did it not: or if he did it, that he doe it not againe.
14 Rebuke thy neighbour, lest perhaps he said it not: and if
he said it, lest perhaps he iterate it.
15 Rebuke thy freind: for
there is often a fault committed.
16 And beleue not euerie
word. There is that offendeth with the tongue, but not from
his hart.
17 For who is there that hath not offended in his
tongue? Rebuke thy neighbour before thou threaten.
18 And
geue place to the feare of the Highest: because the feare of
God is al wisedom, and to feare God is in it, & the disposition
of the law is in al wisdom.
19 And the discipline of wickednes
is not wisedom: and the cogitation of sinners is not prudence.
20 There is wickednes, and in it execration: and there is a
foole that hath lesse wisedom.
21 Better is a man that hath lesse
wisdom, and lacketh vnderstanding, in feare, then he that
abundeth in vnderstanding, and transgresseth the law of the
Highest.
22 There is an assured subtilitie, & the same wicked.
23 And there is that vttereth an exact word telling the truth.
There is that note wickedly humbleth himselfe, and his inner
partes be ful of deceite:
24 and there is a iust man note that submitteth
himselfe ouermuch of great humilitie: and there is a
iust one note that boweth his face, and feyneth himself not to
see that which is vnknowen:
25 and if he be forbidden to sinne
for imbecillitie of power, if he shal finde a time to do euil, he
wil do euil.
26 A man is knowen by the sight, and a wiseman
is knowen by the shew of his face.
27 The clothing of the
bodie, and the laughing of the teeth, and the going of the
man tel of him.
28 There is a lying chastisement in the anger of
a contumelious person: and there is a iudgement, that is not
allowed to be good: and there is that holdeth his peace, and
he is wise.
