1Desire not a multitude of unprofitable children, neither delight in ungodly sons. 2Though they multiply, rejoice not in them, except the fear of the Lord be with them. 3Trust not thou in their life, neither respect their multitude: for one that is just is better than a thousand; and better it is to die without…
1He that feareth the Lord will do good, and he that hath the knowledge of the law shall obtain her. 2And as a mother shall she meet him, and receive him as a wife married of a virgin. 3With the bread of understanding shall she feed him, and give him the water of wisdom to…
1Blessed is the man that hath not slipped with his mouth, and is not pricked with the multitude of sins. 2Blessed is he whose conscience hath not condemned him, and who is not fallen from his hope in the Lord. 3Riches are not comely for a niggard: and what should an envious man do with…
1He that toucheth pitch shall be defiled therewith; and he that hath fellowship with a proud man shall be like unto him. 2Burden not thyself above thy power while thou livest; and have no fellowship with one that is mightier and richer than thyself: for how agree the kettle and the earthen pot together? for…

1A wise judge will instruct his people; and the government of a prudent man is well ordered. 2As the judge of the people is himself, so are his officers; and what manner of man the ruler of the city is, such are all they that dwell therein. 3An unwise king destroyeth his people; but through…
1Strive not with a mighty man’ lest thou fall into his hands. 2Be not at variance with a rich man, lest he overweigh thee: for gold hath destroyed many, and perverted the hearts of kings. 3Strive not with a man that is full of tongue, and heap not wood upon his fire. 4Jest not with…
1Be not jealous over the wife of thy bosom, and teach her not an evil lesson against thyself. 2Give not thy soul unto a woman to set her foot upon thy substance. 3Meet not with an harlot, lest thou fall into her snares. 4Use not much the company of a woman that is a singer,…
1Do no evil, so shall no harm come unto thee. 2Depart from the unjust, and iniquity shall turn away from thee. 3My son, sow not upon the furrows of unrighteousness, and thou shalt not reap them sevenfold. 4Seek not of the Lord preeminence, neither of the king the seat of honour. 5Justify not thyself before…
