Proverbs 22:18-23

¹⁸For it shalbe pleasant, if thou keepe them in thy bellie, and if they be directed together in thy lippes.

¹⁹That thy confidence may be in the Lord, I haue shewed thee this day: thou therefore take heede.

²⁰Haue not I written vnto thee three times in counsels and knowledge,

²¹That I might shewe thee the assurance of the wordes of trueth to answere the wordes of trueth to them that sende to thee?

²²Robbe not the poore, because hee is poore, neither oppresse the afflicted in iudgement.

²³For the Lord will defende their cause, and spoyle the soule of those that spoyle them.
