Proverbes 20
XX ¶ Wine is a mocker, strong drinke is raging: and whosoeuer is deceiued thereby, is not wise. 2 [fn]The feare of a king, is as the roaring of a Lion: who so prouoketh him to anger, sinneth against his owne soule. 3 It is an honour for a man to cease from strife: but euery foole will be medling. 4 [fn][fn]The sluggard will not plow by reason of the cold; therefore shall he begge in haruest, and haue nothing. 5 [fn]Counsell in the heart of man is like deepe water: but a man of vnderstanding will draw it out. 6 [fn]Most men will proclaime euery one his owne goodnes: but a faithfull man who can finde? 7 [fn]The iust man walketh in his integritie: his children are blessed after him. 8 A king that sitteth in the throne of iudgement, scattereth away all euill with his eyes. 9 [fn]Who can say, I haue made my heart cleane, I am pure from my sinne? 10 [fn][fn][fn]Diuers weights, and diuers measures, both of them are alike abomination to the LORD. 11 Euen a childe is knowen by his doings, whether his worke be pure, and whether it be right. 12 [fn]The hearing eare, and the seeing eye, the LORD hath made euen both of them. 13 [fn]Loue not sleepe, lest thou come to pouertie: open thine eyes, and thou shalt be satisfied with bread. 14 It is nought, it is nought (saith the buyer:) but when he is gone his way, then he boasteth. 15 There is gold, and a multitude of Rubies: but the lips of knowledge are a precious iewell. 16 [fn]Take his garment that is suerty for a stranger: and take a pledge of him for a strange woman. 17 [fn][fn]Bread of deceit is sweet to a man: but afterwards his mouth shall be filled with grauell. 18 [fn]Euery purpose is established by counsell: and with good aduice make warre. 19 [fn][fn]He that goeth about as a tale-bearer, reueileth secrets; therefore meddle not with him that flattereth with his lippes. 20 [fn][fn]Who so curseth his father or his mother, his lampe shall be put out in obscure darkenesse. 21 An inheritance may be gotten hastily at the beginning: but the ende thereof shall not be blessed. 22 [fn]Say not thou, I will recompence euil: but wait on the LORD, and he shall saue thee. 23 [fn][fn]Diuers waights are an abomination vnto the LORD: and a false ballance is not good. 24 [fn]Mans goings are of the LORD; how can a man then vnderstand his owne way? 25 It is a snare to the man who deuoureth that which is holy: and after vowes, to make inquirie. 26 [fn]A wise king scattereth the wicked, & bringeth the wheele ouer them. 27 [fn]The spirit of man is the candle of the LORD, searching all the inward parts of the belly. 28 [fn]Mercy and trueth preserue the king: and his throne is vpholden by mercy. 29 [fn]The glory of yong men is their strength: and the beautie of old men is the gray head. 30 [fn]The blewnes of a wound cleanseth away euill: so doe stripes the inward parts of the belly.
