|
|
These are also proverbs of Solomon, which the men of Hezekiah
king of Judah copied out.
|
|
|
It is the glory of God to conceal a thing: but the honour of
kings is to search out a matter.
|
|
|
The heaven for height, and the earth for depth, and the heart
of kings is unsearchable.
|
|
|
Take away the dross from the silver, and there shall come
forth a vessel for the finer.
|
|
|
Take away the wicked from before the king, and his throne
shall be established in righteousness.
|
|
|
Put not forth thyself in the presence of the king, and stand
not in the place of great men:
|
|
|
For better it is that it be said unto thee, Come up hither;
than that thou shouldest be put lower in the presence of the
prince whom thine eyes have seen.
|
|
|
Go not forth hastily to strive, lest thou know not what to do
in the end thereof, when thy neighbour hath put thee to shame.
|
|
|
Debate thy cause with thy neighbour himself; and discover not
a secret to another:
|
|
|
Lest he that heareth it put thee to shame, and thine infamy
turn not away.
|
|
|
A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in pictures of
silver.
|
|
|
As an earring of gold, and an ornament of fine gold, so is a
wise reprover upon an obedient ear.
|
|
|
As the cold of snow in the time of harvest, so is a faithful
messenger to them that send him: for he refresheth the soul of
his masters.
|
|
|
Whoso boasteth himself of a false gift is like clouds and wind
without rain.
|
|
|
By long forbearing is a prince persuaded, and a soft tongue
breaketh the bone.
|
|
|
Hast thou found honey? eat so much as is sufficient for thee,
lest thou be filled therewith, and vomit it.
|
|
|
Withdraw thy foot from thy neighbour's house; lest he be weary
of thee, and so hate thee.
|
|
|
A man that beareth false witness against his neighbour is a
maul, and a sword, and a sharp arrow.
|
|
|
Confidence in an unfaithful man in time of trouble is like a
broken tooth, and a foot out of joint.
|
|
|
As he that taketh away a garment in cold weather, and as
vinegar upon nitre, so is he that singeth songs to an heavy
heart.
|
|
|
If thine enemy be hungry, give him bread to eat; and if he be
thirsty, give him water to drink:
|
|
|
For thou shalt heap coals of fire upon his head, and the LORD
shall reward thee.
|
|
|
The north wind driveth away rain: so doth an angry countenance
a backbiting tongue.
|
|
|
It is better to dwell in the corner of the housetop, than with
a brawling woman and in a wide house.
|
|
|
As cold waters to a thirsty soul, so is good news from a far
country.
|
|
|
A righteous man falling down before the wicked is as a
troubled fountain, and a corrupt spring.
|
|
|
It is not good to eat much honey: so for men to search their
own glory is not glory.
|
|
|
He that hath no rule over his own spirit is like a city that
is broken down, and without walls.
