Proverbs 14:25-34

²⁵A faithful witness delivereth souls; and a false man bringeth forth leasings.

²⁶In the dread of the Lord is trust of strength; and hope shall be to the sons of him.

²⁷The dread of the Lord is a well of life; that it bow away from the falling of death.

²⁸The dignity of the king is in the multitude of people; and the shame of a prince is in the fewness of people.

²⁹He that is patient, is governed by much wisdom; but he that is unpatient, enhanceth his folly.

³⁰Health of heart is the life of flesh; envy is the rot of bones.

³¹He that falsely challengeth a needy man, despiseth his Maker; but he that hath mercy on a poor man, honoureth his Maker.

³²A wicked man is put out for his malice; but a just or rightwise man hopeth in his death.

³³Wisdom resteth in the heart of a wise man; and he shall teach all unlearned men.

³⁴Rightfulness or Rightwiseness raiseth up a folk; sin maketh peoples wretches.
