| [1]Better is the poor that walketh in his integrity than he that is perverse in his lips and a fool at the same time. |
[1]Better is the poore that liueth godly, then he that abuseth his lippes, and is a foole |
| [2]Also, that the soul be without knowledge is not good; and he that hasteth with his feet sinneth. |
[2]The desire without discretion is not good: but [as] a man whiche hasteth with his feete offendeth |
| [3]The foolishness of man perverteth his way; and his heart fretteth against 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇. |
[3]The foolishnesse of man paruerteth his way: and his heart fretteth against the Lorde |
| [4]Wealth addeth many friends; but as for the poor, his friend separateth himself from him. |
[4]Riches maketh many frendes: but the poore is separated from his neighbour |

[5]A false witnesse shall not be vnpunished: and he that speaketh lyes shall not escape |
| [6]Many will entreat the favour of the liberal man; and every man is a friend to him that giveth gifts. |
[6]The multitude hangeth vpon great men: and euery man fauoureth hym that geueth rewardes |
| [7]All the brethren of the poor do hate him; how much more do his friends go far from him! He that pursueth words, they turn against him. |
[7]All the brethren of the poore do hate hym, yea his owne frendes withdrawe them selues from hym: and he that geueth credence to wordes, getteth nothing |

[8]He that is wise loueth his owne soule, and kepeth vnderstanding, that he may prosper |

[9]A false witnesse shall not be vnpunished: and he that speaketh lyes shall perishe |
| [10]Luxury is not seemly for a fool; much less for a servant to have rule over princes. |
[10]Pleasure is not seemely for a foole: muche lesse for a bondman to haue rule of princes |
| [11]It is the discretion of a man to be slow to anger, and it is his glory to pass over a transgression. |
[11]A wyse man can put of displeasure, and it is his honour to let some faultes passe |
| [12]The king's wrath is as the roaring of a lion; but his favour is as dew upon the grass. |
[12]The kynges displeasure is lyke the roaryng of a Lion: but his fauour is lyke the deawe vpon the grasse |
| [13]A foolish son is the calamity of his father; and the contentions of a wife are a continual dropping. |
[13]An vndiscrete sonne is the heauinesse of his father, and a brawlyng wyfe is like the toppe of an house wherthrough it is euer dropping |
| [14]House and riches are the inheritance of fathers; but a prudent wife is from 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇. |
[14]House and riches may a man haue by the heritage of his elders: but a discrete woman is the gyft of the Lorde |

[15]Slouthfulnesse bryngeth sleepe, and a soule accustomed with craft, shall suffer hunger |
| [16]He that keepeth the commandment keepeth his soul; but he that despiseth His ways shall die. |
[16]Who so kepeth the commaundement, kepeth his owne soule: but he that regardeth not his wayes, shall dye |
| [17]He that is gracious unto the poor lendeth unto 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇; and his good deed will He repay unto him. |
[17]He that hath pitie vpon the poore, lendeth vnto the Lord: and looke what he layeth out, it shalbe payde hym agayne |
| [18]Chasten thy son, for there is hope; but set not thy heart on his destruction. |
[18]Chasten thy sonne whyle there is hope: and let not thy soule spare for his crying |
| [19]A man of great wrath shall suffer punishment; for if thou interpose, thou wilt add thereto. |

| [21]There are many devices in a man's heart; but the counsel of 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇, that shall stand. |
[21]There are many deuises in a mans heart: neuerthelesse, the counsayle of the Lorde shall stande |
| [22]The lust of a man is his shame; and a poor man is better than a liar. |
[22]It is a mans worship to do good: and a poore man is better then a lyer |
| [23]The fear of 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇 tendeth to life; and he that hath it shall abide satisfied, he shall not be visited with evil. |
[23]The feare of the Lord [bringeth a man] to lyfe: and he shall rest the whole night in plenteousnesse without visitation of any plague |
| [24]The sluggard burieth his hand in the dish, and will not so much as bring it back to his mouth. |
[24]A slouthfull man shutteth his hande into his bosome, and wyll not take payne to put it to his mouth |
| [25]When thou smitest a scorner, the simple will become prudent; and when one that hath understanding is reproved, he will understan knowledge. |
[25]If thou smytest a scornefull person, the ignoraunt shall take better heede: and if thou reprouest one that hath vnderstanding, he wyll be the wyser |

[27]My sonne heare no more the doctrine that leadeth thee vnto errours from the wordes of vnderstanding |
| [28]An ungodly witness mocketh at right; and the mouth of the wicked devoureth iniquity. |
[28]A wicked witnesse mocketh iudgement: and the mouth of the vngodly deuoureth wickednesse |
| [29]Judgments are prepared for scorners, and stripes for the back of fools. |
[29]Iudgementes are ordeyned for the scornefull, and stripes for fooles backes |
