1Whoso loveth instruction loveth knowledge:
2A good man obtaineth favour of the Lord:
3A man shall not be established by wickedness:
4A virtuous woman is a crown to her husband:
5The thoughts of the righteous are right:
6The words of the wicked are to lie in wait for blood:
7The wicked are overthrown, and are not:
8A man shall be commended according to his wisdom:
9He that is despised, and hath a servant, is better
10A righteous man regardeth the life of his beast:
11He that tilleth his land shall be satisfied with bread:
12The wicked desireth the net of evil men:
13The wicked is snared by the transgression of his lips:
14A man shall be satisfied with good by the fruit of his mouth:
15The way of a fool is right in his own eyes:
16A fool’s wrath is presently known:
17He that speaketh truth sheweth forth righteousness:
18There is that speaketh like the piercings of a sword:
19The lip of truth shall be established for ever:
20Deceit is in the heart of them that imagine evil:
21There shall no evil happen to the just:
22Lying lips are abomination to the Lord:
23A prudent man concealeth knowledge:
24The hand of the diligent shall bear rule:
25Heaviness in the heart of man maketh it stoop:
26The righteous is more excellent than his neighbour:
27The slothful man roasteth not that which he took in hunting:
28In the way of righteousness is life;
