BB PRO Chapter 4

4 Heare O ye chyldren a fatherly instruction, & take good heede, that ye may learne vnderstanding. 2 For I haue geuen you a good doctrine, forsake not ye my lawe. 3 For when I my selfe was my fathers deare sonne, and tenderly beloued of my mother: 4 He taught me also and sayde vnto me, let thyne heart receaue my wordes, kepe my commaundementes and thou shalt liue. 5 Get thee wysdome, and get thee vnderstanding: forget not the wordes of my mouth, and shrinke not from them. 6 Forsake her not, and she shall preserue thee, loue her, and she shall kepe thee. 7 The chiefe poynt of wysdome, is to possesse wysdome: and before all thy goodes to get thee vnderstanding. 8 Make much of her, and she shall promote thee, yea if thou embrace her, she shall bryng thee vnto honour: 9 She shal beautifie thy head with manyfolde graces, and garnishe thee with a crowne of glory. 10 Heare my sonne, and receaue my wordes, and the yeres of thy life shalbe many. 11 I haue shewed thee the way of wysdome, & led thee into the right pathes. 12 So that if thou goest in them, there shall no straitnesse hinder thee: & when thou runnest, thou shalt not fall. 13 Take fast holde of doctrine, and let her not go: kepe her, for she is thy life. 14 Come not in the pathe of the vngodlye, and walke not in the way of the wicked: 15 Abhorre it and go not therein, depart aside, and passe ouer by it. 16 For they sleepe not except they haue done mischiefe: and sleepe is taken from them, vntyll they haue done harme. 17 For they eate the bread of wickednes, and drinke the wine of robberie. 18 The path of the righteous shineth, as the light that is euer bryghter and bryghter vnto the perfect day. 19 But the way of the vngodly is as the darkenesse, they knowe not where they fall. 20 My sonne marke my wordes, and encline thyne eare vnto my sayinges: 21 Let them not depart from thine eyes, but kepe them euen in the middest of thyne heart: 22 For they are life vnto those that finde them, and health vnto all their bodyes. 23 Kepe thyne heart with all diligence, for out of it issueth lyfe. 24 Put away from thee a frowarde mouth, and let the lippes of slaunder be farre from thee. 25 Let thyne eyes beholde that thyng that is right, and let thyne eye liddes loke straight before thee. 26 Ponder the path of thy feete, and let all thy wayes be ordred aright. 27 Turne not aside, neither to the right hande nor to the left: but wihholde thy foote from euyll.
