Proverbs 20:12-19

¹²An ear hearing, and an eye seeing, or The hearing ear, and the seeing eye, God made ever either.

¹³Do not thou love sleep, lest needi-ness oppress thee; open thine eyes, and be thou ful filled with loaves.

¹⁴Each buyer saith, It is evil, it is evil; and when he hath gone away, then he shall have glory.

¹⁵Gold, and the multitude of gems, and a precious vessel, be the lips of knowing.

¹⁶Take thou away the cloth of him that was a borrow of another man; and for strangers take thou away a wed from him.

¹⁷The bread of a leasing, that is, gotten by a leasing, is sweet to a man; and afterward his mouth shall be filled with reckoning or with little pebble stones.

¹⁸Thoughts be made strong by counsels; and battles shall be treated by governances.

¹⁹Be thou not meddled or mingled with him that showeth privates, and goeth guilefully, and alargeth his lips.
