The Gospel of Barnabas
GspBar
[1]He that separateth himself seeketh his own desire, and snarlest against all sound wisdom. [No book]
[2]A fool hath no delight in understanding, but only that his heart may lay itself bare. [No book]
[3]When the wicked cometh, there cometh also contempt, and with ignominy reproach. [No book]
[4]The words of a man's mouth are as deep waters; a flowing brook, a fountain of wisdom. [No book]
[5]It is not good to respect the person of the wicked, so as to turn aside the righteous in judgment. [No book]
[6]A fool's lips enter into contention, and his mouth calleth for strokes. [No book]
[7]A fool's mouth is his ruin, and his lips are the snare of his soul. [No book]
[8]The words of a whisperer are as dainty morsels, and they go down into the innermost parts of the belly. [No book]
[9]Even one that is slack in his work is brother to him that is a destroyer. [No book]
[10]The name of ‏𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇‎ is a strong tower: the righteous runneth into it, and is set up on high. [No book]
[11]The rich man's wealth is his strong city, and as a high wall in his own conceit. [No book]
[12]Before destruction the heart of a man is haughty, and before honour goeth humility. [No book]
[13]He that giveth answer before he heareth, it is folly and confusion unto him. [No book]
[14]The spirit of a man will sustain his infirmity; but a broken spirit who can bear? [No book]
[15]The heart of the prudent getteth knowledge; and the ear of the wise seeketh knowledge. [No book]
[16]A man's gift maketh room for him, and bringeth him before great men. [No book]
[17]He that pleadeth his cause first seemeth just; but his neighbour cometh and searcheth him out. [No book]
[18]The lot causeth strife to cease, and parteth asunder the contentious. [No book]
[19]A brother offended is harder to be won than a strong city; and their contentions are like the bars of a castle. [No book]
[20]A man's belly shall be filled with the fruit of his mouth; with the increase of his lips shall he be satisfied. [No book]
[21]Death and life are in the power of the tongue; and they that indulge it shall eat the fruit thereof. [No book]
[22]Whoso findeth a wife findeth a great good, and obtaineth favour of ‏𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇‎. [No book]
[23]The poor useth entreaties; but the rich answereth impudently. [No book]
[24]There are friends that one hath to his own hurt; but there is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother. [No book]
