|
|
A GOOD name is rather to be chosen than great riches, and
loving favour rather than silver and gold.
|
|
|
The rich and poor meet together: the LORD is the maker of them
all.
|
|
|
A prudent man foreseeth the evil, and hideth himself: but the
simple pass on, and are punished.
|
|
|
By humility and the fear of the LORD are riches, and honour,
and life.
|
|
|
Thorns and snares are in the way of the froward: he that doth
keep his soul shall be far from them.
|
|
|
Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old,
he will not depart from it.
|
|
|
The rich ruleth over the poor, and the borrower is servant to
the lender.
|
|
|
He that soweth iniquity shall reap vanity: and the rod of his
anger shall fail.
|
|
|
He that hath a bountiful eye shall be blessed; for he giveth
of his bread to the poor.
|
|
|
Cast out the scorner, and contention shall go out; yea, strife
and reproach shall cease.
|
|
|
He that loveth pureness of heart, for the grace of his lips
the king shall be his friend.
|
|
|
The eyes of the LORD preserve knowledge, and he overthroweth
the words of the transgressor.
|
|
|
The slothful man saith, There is a lion without, I shall be
slain in the streets.
|
|
|
The mouth of strange women is a deep pit: he that is abhorred
of the LORD shall fall therein.
|
|
|
Foolishness is bound in the heart of a child; but the rod of
correction shall drive it far from him.
|
|
|
He that oppresseth the poor to increase his riches, and he
that giveth to the rich, shall surely come to want.
|
|
|
Bow down thine ear, and hear the words of the wise, and apply
thine heart unto my knowledge.
|
|
|
For it is a pleasant thing if thou keep them within thee; they
shall withal be fitted in thy lips.
|
|
|
That thy trust may be in the LORD, I have made known to thee
this day, even to thee.
|
|
|
Have not I written to thee excellent things in counsels and
knowledge,
|
|
|
That I might make thee know the certainty of the words of
truth; that thou mightest answer the words of truth to them
that send unto thee?
|
|
|
Rob not the poor, because he is poor: neither oppress the
afflicted in the gate:
|
|
|
For the LORD will plead their cause, and spoil the soul of
those that spoiled them.
|
|
|
Make no friendship with an angry man; and with a furious man
thou shalt not go:
|
|
|
Lest thou learn his ways, and get a snare to thy soul.
|
|
|
Be not thou one of them that strike hands, or of them that are
sureties for debts.
|
|
|
If thou hast nothing to pay, why should he take away thy bed
from under thee?
|
|
|
Remove not the ancient landmark, which thy fathers have set.
|
|
|
Seest thou a man diligent in his business? he shall stand
before kings; he shall not stand before mean men.
