Chap. XLII.
note
Further admonition to auoide sinnes in wordes, and deedes. 6. with care
that others offend not by our negligence. 15. An other matter of meditation
is Gods excellencie, appearing in his workes.
1 Repeate not the word note which thou hast heard, neither
reueale thou of a secret word, & thou shalt in deede be
without confusion, and shalt finde grace in the sight of al
men: be not ashamed for al these thinges, and accept not person
therby to sinne.
2 Of the law of the Highest, and his
testament, and of iudgement to iustifie the impious,
3 of the
word of companions and wayfaring men, and of the geuing
of the inheritance of freindes,
4 of the equalitie of balance
and weightes, of the getting of manie thinges and few,
5 of
the corruption of bying, and of marchantes, and of much
discipline of thy children, and to make bloudie the side of a
wicked seruant.
6 Ouer a naughtie woman a seale is good.
7 Where there are manie handes, shut vp, and what soeuer
thou shalt deliuer, number, and weigh it: and write euerie
thing geuen and receiued.
8 Of the discipline of the vnwise
and foolish, and of ancientes, that are iudged of young men:
and thou shalt be wel instructed in al thinges, and approued
in the sight of al the liuing.
9 A daughter is the secret watch of
the father, and the care of her taketh away sleepe, lest perhaps
in her youth she become past age, & abiding with an husband
she become odious:
10 lest at anie time she be corrupted in
her virginitie, and in her fathers house she be found with
childe: lest perhaps abyding with her husband she transgresse,
or at the least become barren.
11 Ouer a dissolute daughter
keepe sure watch: lest at anie time she make thee come into
reprooche with thine enemies, because of detraction in the
citie, and the obiection of the people, and she confound thee
in the multitude of the people.
12 Looke not on euerie bodie
-- --
for beautie sake: & among wemen tarie not.
13 For out of garments
cometh forth the moth, and from a woman the iniquitie
of a man.
14 For note better is the iniquitie of a man, then a
woman doing a good turne, and a woman shaming vnto
reproche.
15 I therefore wil be mindeful of the workes of our
Lord, and I wil shew forth which I haue seene. By the words
of our Lord are his workes.
16 The sunne illuminating hath
looked through out al, and ful of the glorie of our Lord is his
worke.
17 Hath not our Lord made the sainctes to declare al
his meruelous thinges, which our Lord the omnipotent confirmed
to be established in his glorie?
18 He hath searched out
the depth, and the hart of men: and in their subtilitie he hath
considered.
19 For our Lord hath knowen al knowlege, and
hath beheld the signe of age, declaring what thinges are
past, and what are to come, reueling note the tokens of secret
thinges.
20 No cogitation escapeth him, and no word hideth
it self from him.
21 The glorious workes of his wisdom he
hath beautified: who is before the world and world without
end, neither is there added,
22 nor diminised, and he needeth
not anie mans counsel.
23 How are al his workes to be desired,
and which is as it were a sparke to consider!
24 Al these
liue, and remaine for euer, and in al necessitie al thinges obey
him.
25 Al thinges duble, one against one, and he hath made
nothing to want.
26 He hath confirmed the good thinges of
euerie one. And who shal be filled seeing his glorie?
