   Proverbs 29   
   [1] He, that being often reproved hardeneth his neck, shall suddenly be   
   destroyed, and that without remedy. [2] When the righteous are in authority,   
   the people rejoice: but when the wicked beareth rule, the people mourn. [3]   
   Whoso loveth wisdom rejoiceth his father: but he that keepeth company with   
   harlots spendeth his substance. [4] The king by judgment establisheth the   
   land: but he that receiveth gifts overthroweth it.   
   [5] A man that flattereth his neighbour spreadeth a net for his feet. [6] In   
   the transgression of an evil man there is a snare: but the righteous doth sing   
   and rejoice.   
   [7] The righteous considereth the cause of the poor: but the wicked regardeth   
   not to know it.   
   [8] Scornful men bring a city into a snare: but wise men turn away wrath. [9]   
   If a wise man contendeth with a foolish man, whether he rage or laugh, there   
   is no rest.   
   [10] The bloodthirsty hate the upright: but the just seek his soul. [11] A   
   fool uttereth all his mind: but a wise man keepeth it in till afterwards.   
   [12] If a ruler hearken to lies, all his servants are wicked. [13] The poor   
   and the deceitful man meet together: the LORD lighteneth both their eyes.   
   [14] The king that faithfully judgeth the poor, his throne shall be   
   established for ever.   
   [15] The rod and reproof give wisdom: but a child left to himself bringeth his   
   mother to shame.   
   [16] When the wicked are multiplied, transgression increaseth: but the   
   righteous shall see their fall.   
   [17] Correct thy son, and he shall give thee rest; yea, he shall give delight   
   unto thy soul.   
   [18] Where there is no vision, the people perish: but he that keepeth the law,   
   happy is he.   
   [19] A servant will not be corrected by words: for though he understand he   
   will not answer.   
   [20] Seest thou a man that is hasty in his words? there is more hope of a fool   
   than of him.   
   [21] He that delicately bringeth up his servant from a child shall have him   
   become his son at the length.   
   [22] An angry man stirreth up strife, and a furious man aboundeth in   
   transgression.   
   [23] A man's pride shall bring him low: but honour shall uphold the humble in   
   spirit.   
   [24] Whoso is partner with a thief hateth his own soul: he heareth cursing,   
   and bewrayeth it not.   
   [25] The fear of man bringeth a snare: but whoso putteth his trust in the LORD   
   shall be safe.   
   [26] Many seek the ruler's favour; but every man's judgment cometh from the   
   LORD.   
   [27] An unjust man is an abomination to the just: and he that is upright in   
   the way is abomination to the wicked.   
      
   Proverbs 30   
   [1] The words of Agur the son of Jakeh, even the prophecy: the man spake unto   
   Ithiel, even unto Ithiel and Ucal, [2] Surely I am more brutish than any man,   
   and have not the understanding of a man.   
   [3] I neither learned wisdom, nor have the knowledge of the holy. [4] Who hath   
   ascended up into heaven, or descended? who hath gathered the wind in his   
   fists? who hath bound the waters in a garment? who hath established all the   
   ends of the earth? what is his name, and what is his son's name, if thou canst   
   tell?   
   [5] Every word of God is pure: he is a shield unto them that put their trust   
   in him.   
   [6] Add thou not unto his words, lest he reprove thee, and thou be found a   
   liar.   
   [7] Two things have I required of thee; deny me them not before I die: [8]   
   Remove far from me vanity and lies: give me neither poverty nor riches; feed   
   me with food convenient for me: [9] Lest I be full, and deny thee, and say,   
   Who is the LORD? or lest I be poor, and steal, and take the name of my God in   
   vain. [10] Accuse not a servant unto his master, lest he curse thee, and thou   
   be found guilty.   
   [11] There is a generation that curseth their father, and doth not bless their   
   mother.   
   [12] There is a generation that are pure in their own eyes, and yet is not   
   washed from their filthiness.   
   [13] There is a generation, O how lofty are their eyes! and their eyelids are   
   lifted up.   
   [14] There is a generation, whose teeth are as swords, and their jaw teeth as   
   knives, to devour the poor from off the earth, and the needy from among men.   
   [15] The horseleach hath two daughters, crying, Give, give. There are three   
   things that are never satisfied, yea, four things say not, It is enough: [16]   
   The grave; and the barren womb; the earth that is not filled with water; and   
   the fire that saith not, It is enough. [17] The eye that mocketh at his   
   father, and despiseth to obey his mother, the ravens of the valley shall pick   
   it out, and the young eagles shall eat it.   
   [18] There be three things which are too wonderful for me, yea, four which I   
   know not:   
   [19] The way of an eagle in the air; the way of a serpent upon a rock; the way   
   of a ship in the midst of the sea; and the way of a man with a maid. [20] Such   
   is the way of an adulterous woman; she eateth, and wipeth her mouth, and   
   saith, I have done no wickedness. [21] For three things the earth is   
   disquieted, and for four which it cannot bear:   
   [22] For a servant when he reigneth; and a fool when he is filled with meat;   
   [23] For an odious woman when she is married; and an handmaid that is heir to   
   her mistress.   
   [24] There be four things which are little upon the earth, but they are   
   exceeding wise:   
   [25] The ants are a people not strong, yet they prepare their meat in the   
   summer;   
   [26] The conies are but a feeble folk, yet make they their houses in the rocks;   
   [27] The locusts have no king, yet go they forth all of them by bands; [28]   
   The spider taketh hold with her hands, and is in kings' palaces. [29] There be   
   three things which go well, yea, four are comely in going: [30] A lion which   
   is strongest among beasts, and turneth not away for any; [31] A greyhound; an   
   he goat also; and a king, against whom there is no rising up.   
   [32] If thou hast done foolishly in lifting up thyself, or if thou hast   
   thought evil, lay thine hand upon thy mouth. [33] Surely the churning of milk   
   bringeth forth butter, and the wringing of the nose bringeth forth blood: so   
   the forcing of wrath bringeth forth strife.   
      
   Proverbs 31   
   [1] The words of king Lemuel, the prophecy that his mother taught him. [2]   
   What, my son? and what, the son of my womb? and what, the son of my vows?   
   [3] Give not thy strength unto women, nor thy ways to that which destroyeth   
   kings.   
   [4] It is not for kings, O Lemuel, it is not for kings to drink wine; nor for   
   princes strong drink:   
   [5] Lest they drink, and forget the law, and pervert the judgment of any of   
   the afflicted.   
   [6] Give strong drink unto him that is ready to perish, and wine unto those   
   that be of heavy hearts.   
   [7] Let him drink, and forget his poverty, and remember his misery no more.   
   [8] Open thy mouth for the dumb in the cause of all such as are appointed to   
   destruction.   
   [9] Open thy mouth, judge righteously, and plead the cause of the poor and   
   needy.   
   [10] Who can find a virtuous woman? for her price is far above rubies. [11]   
   The heart of her husband doth safely trust in her, so that he shall have no   
   need of spoil.   
   [12] She will do him good and not evil all the days of her life. [13] She   
   seeketh wool, and flax, and worketh willingly with her hands. [14] She is like   
   the merchants' ships; she bringeth her food from afar. [15] She riseth also   
   while it is yet night, and giveth meat to her household, and a portion to her   
   maidens. [16] She considereth a field, and buyeth it: with the fruit of her   
   hands she planteth a vineyard.   
   [17] She girdeth her loins with strength, and strengtheneth her arms. [18] She   
   perceiveth that her merchandise is good: her candle goeth not out by night.   
   [19] She layeth her hands to the spindle, and her hands hold the distaff. [20]   
   She stretcheth out her hand to the poor; yea, she reacheth forth her hands to   
   the needy.   
   [21] She is not afraid of the snow for her household: for all her household   
   are clothed with scarlet.   
   [22] She maketh herself coverings of tapestry; her clothing is silk and purple.   
   [23] Her husband is known in the gates, when he sitteth among the elders of   
   the land.   
   [24] She maketh fine linen, and selleth it; and delivereth girdles unto the   
   merchant.   
   [25] Strength and honour are her clothing; and she shall rejoice in time to   
   come.   
   [26] She openeth her mouth with wisdom; and in her tongue is the law of   
   kindness.   
   [27] She looketh well to the ways of her household, and eateth not the bread   
   of idleness.   
   [28] Her children arise up, and call her blessed; her husband also, and he   
   praiseth her.   
   [29] Many daughters have done virtuously, but thou excellest them all. [30]   
   Favour is deceitful, and beauty is vain: but a woman that feareth the LORD,   
   she shall be praised.   
   [31] Give her of the fruit of her hands; and let her own works praise her in   
   the gates.
