6Childres children are the crowne of the elders: and the glory of ye children are their fathers.
7Hie talke becommeth not a foole, much lesse a lying talke a prince.
8A rewarde is as a stone pleasant in the eyes of them that haue it: it prospereth, whithersoeuer it turneth.
9Hee that couereth a transgression, seeketh loue: but hee that repeateth a matter, separateth the prince.
10A reproofe entereth more into him that hath vnderstanding, then an hundreth stripes into a foole.
11A sedicious person seeketh onely euill, and a cruel messenger shall be sent against him.
12It is better for a man to meete a beare robbed of her whelpes, then a foole in his follie.
13He that rewardeth euil for good, euil shall not depart from his house.
14The beginning of strife is as one that openeth the waters: therefore or the contention be medled with, leaue off.
15He that iustifieth the wicked, and he that condemneth the iust, euen they both are abomination to the Lord.
16Wherefore is there a price in the hand of the foole to get wisdome, and he hath none heart?
17A friende loueth at all times: and a brother is borne for aduersitie.
18A man destitute of vnderstanding, toucheth the hande, and becommeth suretie for his neighbour.
19He loueth transgression, that loueth strife: and he that exalteth his gate, seeketh destruction.
20The froward heart findeth no good: and he that hath a naughtie tongue, shall fall into euill.
21He that begetteth a foole, getteth himselfe sorow, and the father of a foole can haue no ioy.
22A ioyfull heart causeth good health: but a sorowfull minde dryeth the bones.
23A wicked man taketh a gift out of the bosome to wrest the wayes of iudgement.
24Wisdome is in the face of him that hath vnderstanding: but the eyes of a foole are in the corners of the world.
