Proverbs 29:1-6

¹Sudden perishing shall come up on that man, that with hard noll, that is, an obstinate soul, despiseth a blamer; and health shall not follow him.

²The commonality shall be glad in the multiplying of just or rightwise men; when wicked men have taken princehood, the people shall wail.

³A man that loveth wisdom, maketh glad his father; but he that nourisheth a strumpet, shall lose his chattel or substance.

⁴A just king raiseth up the land; an avaricious man shall destroy it.

⁵A man that speaketh by flattering and feigned words to his friend, spreadeth abroad a net to his steps.

⁶A snare shall wrap a wicked man doing sin; and a just or rightwise man shall praise, and make joy.
