Chap. XXI.
An inuectiue against sinne in general, 5. and diuers in particular.
1 Sonne hast thou sinned? doe so no more: but for the
old also pray that they may be forgeuen thee.
2 noteAs from
the face of a serpent flee from sinnes: and if thou approch to
them, they wil receiue thee.
3 The teeth of a lion the teeth
thereof, killing the soules of men.
4 Al iniquitie is as a two
edged sword, there is no remedie for the wound thereof.
5 Brawling and iniuries shal bring the substance to nothing:
and the house that is verie rich, shal be made nothing by
pride: so the substance of the proude shal be rooted out.
6 The prayer of the poore out of the mouth shal come to his
eares, and iudgement shal come for him spedely.
7 He that
hateth chastisement, is note the trace of a sinner: and he that
feareth God, note wil turne to his owne hart.
8 The mightie in
a bold tongue is knowen a far of, and a wiseman knoweth
himself to fal by him.
9 He that buildeth his house at other
menes charges, is as he that gathereth his stones note in the
winter.
10 The synagogue of sinners is as tow gathered together,
-- --
and their consummation a flame of fire.
11 The way of
sinners is paued with stones, & in their end, hel, & darkenes,
and paines.
12 He that keepeth iustice, shal conteine the
vnderstanding therof.
13 The consummation of the feare of
God wisdom and vnderstanding.
14 He shal not be taught, that
is not wise in good.
15 But there is wisdom that abundeth in
euil: and there is no vnderstanding where bitternes is.
16 The
knowlege of the wise shal abound as an inundation, and his
counsel is permanent as a fountaine of life.
17 The hart of a
foole is as a broken vessel, and al wisdom it shal not hold.
18 A man of knowlege wil praise whatsoeuer wise word he
shal heare, and wil applie it to himself: the riotous man hath
heard it, and it shal displease him, and he wil cast it behind his
back.
19 The note narration of a foole is as a burden in the way:
for in note the lippes of the wise shal grace be found.
20 The
mouth of the prudent is sought in the Church, and they wil
thinke vpon his wordes in their hartes.
21 As a house destroied,
so is wisdom to a foole: & the knowlege of the vnwise inexplicable
wordes.
22 Fetters on the feete, doctrine to a foole,
and as manicles vpon the right hand.
23 A foole in laughter
exalteth his voice: but a wiseman wil scarse laugh secretly.
24 Doctrine to the prudent is a golden ornament, and as it
were a bracelet on the right arme.
25 The foote of a foole
goeth easely into his neighbours house: & a cunning man wil
be abashed at the person of the mightie.
26 A foole wil looke
from the window into the house: but the nurtered wil stand
without.
27 It is the follie of a man to harken by the dore:
and a wiseman wil be greued with the contumelie.
28 The
lippes of the vnwise shal tel foolish thinges: but the wordes
of the wise shal be pondered in balance.
29 The hart of fooles
is in their mouth: and the mouth of wisemen is in their hart.
30 Whiles note the impious curseth the diuel, he curseth his
owne soule.
31 The whisperer shal defile his soule, and shal be
hated in al: and he that shal abide with him, shal be odious:
the stil man and wise shal be honored.
