13 A wise sonne wil hearken to his fathers warnyng: but he that is scorneful wil not heare when he is reproued.2 Of the fruite of a wise mans mouth shall eche man eate good thynges: but the wicked shall eate of the fruite of the transgressours.3 He that kepeth his mouth, kepeth his lyfe: but who so rashlye openeth his lippes, destroyeth hym selfe.4 The sluggarde woulde fayne haue and can not get his desire: but the soule of the diligent shall haue plentie.5 A ryghteous man abhorreth lyes: but the vngodly shameth hym selfe, and is put to scilence.6 Ryghteousnesse kepeth the innocent in the way: but vngodlinesse doth ouerthrowe the sinner.7 Some men make them selues riche though they haue nothyng: agayne, some make them selues poore hauyng great riches.8 With goodes a man redeemeth his life: and the poore wyll not be reproued.9 The lyght of the ryghteous maketh ioyfull: but the candell of the vngodly shalbe put out.10 Among the proude there is euer strife: but with the well aduised is wisdome.11 Uaynly gotten goodes are soone spent: but they that be gathered together with the hande, shall encrease.12 Hope deferred greeueth the heart: but whe the desire cometh, it is a tree of life.13 Who so dispiseth the worde, shall perishe for the same: but he that feareth the commaundement, shall haue the rewarde.14 The lawe of the wise is a well of life, to auoyde from the snares of death.15 Good vnderstandyng geueth fauour: but harde is the way of the dispisers.16 A wise man doth all thynges with discretion: but a foole wyll declare his follie.17 An vngodly messenger falleth into mischiefe: but a faythfull embassadour is as health.18 He that thinketh scorne to be refourmed, commeth to pouertie and shame: but who so regardeth correction, shall come to honour.19 When a desire is brought to passe, it deliteth the soule: but fooles count it abhomination to depart from euyll.20 He that goeth in the companie of wise men, shalbe wise: but who so is a companion of fooles, shalbe afflicted.21 Mischiefe foloweth vpon sinners: but the righteous shal haue a good reward.22 He that is vertuous leaueth an heritaunce vnto his childers children, & the riches of ye sinner is layde vp for the iust.23 There is plenteousnesse of foode in the fieldes of the poore: but the fielde not well ordered, is without fruite.24 He that spareth the rodde, hateth his sonne: but who so loueth hym, chasteneth hym betymes.25 The righteous eateth and is satisfied: but the belly of the vngodly hath neuer enough.
