1Better is a good name, than many riches; for good grace is above silver and gold.
2A rich man and a poor man met themselves; the Lord is the worker of ever either.
3A fell man seeth evil, and hideth himself; and an innocent man passed, and he was tormented by harm.
4The end of temperance is the dread of the Lord; riches, and glory, and life.
5Armours or Arms and swords be in the way of a wayward man; but the keeper of his soul goeth away far from those or from them.
6It is a proverb, A young waxing man after his way, and when he hath waxed eld or eldeth, he shall not go away from it.
7A rich man commandeth to poor men; and he that taketh borrowing, is servant of the lender.
8He that soweth wickedness shall reap evils; and the rod of his ire or his wrath shall be ended.
