| 1 | Whoso loueth instruction, loueth knowledge: but he that hateth reproofe, is brutish. |
| 2 | A good man obtaineth fauour of the Lord: but a man of wicked deuices will he condemne. |
| 3 | A man shall not bee established by wickednesse: but the roote of the righteous shall not be mooued. |
| 4 | A vertuous woman is a crowne to her husband: but she that maketh ashamed, is as rottennesse in his bones. |
| 5 | The thoughts of the righteous are right: but the counsels of the wicked are deceit. |
| 6 | The words of the wicked are to lie in waite for blood: but the mouth of the vpright shall deliuer them. |
| 7 | The wicked are ouerthrowen, and are not: but the house of the righteous shall stand. |
| 8 | A man shall be commended according to his wisedome: but hee that is of a peruerse heart, shall be despised. |
| 9 | Hee that is despised and hath a seruant, is better then he that honoureth himselfe, and lacketh bread. |
| 10 | A righteous man regardeth the life of his beast: but the tender mercies of the wicked are cruell. |
| 11 | Hee that tilleth his land, shall bee satisfied with bread: but he that followeth vaine persons, is void of vnderstanding. |
| 12 | The wicked desireth the net of euill men: but the roote of the righteous yeeldeth fruit. |
| 13 | The wicked is snared by the transgression of his lippes: but the iust shall come out of trouble. |
| 14 | A man shall bee satisfied with good by the fruit of his mouth, and the recompence of a mans hands shall bee rendred vnto him. |
| 15 | The way of a foole is right in his owne eyes: but he that hearkeneth vnto counsell, is wise. |
| 16 | A fooles wrath is presently knowen: but a prudent man couereth shame. |
| 17 | He that speaketh trueth, sheweth foorth righteousnesse: but a false witnesse, deceit. |
| 18 | There is that speaketh like the pearcings of a sword: but the tongue of the wise is health. |
| 19 | The lippe of trueth shall bee established for euer: but a lying tongue is but for a moment. |
| 20 | Deceit is in the heart of them that imagine euill: but to the counsellours of peace, is ioy. |
| 21 | There shall no euill happen to the iust: but the wicked shall bee filled with mischiefe. |
| 22 | Lying lippes are abomination to the Lord: but they that deale truely, are his delight. |
| 23 | A prudent man concealeth knowledge: but the heart of fooles proclaimeth foolishnesse. |
| 24 | The hand of the diligent shall beare rule: but the slouthfull shall bee vnder tribute. |
| 25 | Heauinesse in the heart of man maketh it stoope: but a good word maketh it glad. |
| 26 | The righteous is more excellent then his neighbour: but the way of the wicked seduceth them. |
| 27 | The slouthfull man rosteth not that which he tooke in hunting: but the substance of a diligent man is precious. |
| 28 | In the way of righteousnesse is life, and in the path-way thereof there is no death. |
