[1] He that is stifnecked and wyll not be refourmed, shall sodaynly be destroyed without any helpe
[2] When the ryghteous are in aucthoritie the people do reioyce: but when the wicked beare rule, the people mourne
[3] Who so loueth wisdome, maketh his father a glad man: but he that kepeth companie with harlottes, spendeth away that he hath
[4] With [true] iudgement the kyng stablissheth the lande: but yf he be a man that oppresse the people with gatherynges, he turneth it vpside downe
[5] Who so flattereth his neighbour, layeth a net for his feete
[6] The sinne of the wicked is his owne snare: but the ryghteous doth syng and reioyce
[7] The righteous considereth the cause of the poore: but the vngodly regardeth no vnderstandyng
[8] Scornefull men bryng a citie into a snare: but wise men turne away wrath
[9] If a wise man contendeth with a foole: whether he be angry or laugh, there is no rest
[10] The bloodthirstie hate the righteous: but the iust seeke his soule
[11] A foole vttereth all his mynde at once: but a wyse man kepeth it in tyll afterwarde
[12] If a prince delight in lyes, all his seruauntes are vngodly
[13] The poore and the lender meete together, and the Lorde lyghteneth both their eyes
[14] The seate of the kyng that faithfully iudgeth the poore, shall continue sure for euermore
[15] The rodde and correction geueth wisdome: but a childe left to his owne will, bryngeth his mother to shame
[16] When the vngodly are multiplied, wickednesse encreaseth: but the ryghteous shall see their fall
[17] Nurture thy sonne with correction, and thou shalt be at rest: yea, he shall do thee good at thine heart
[18] When the worde of God is not preached, the people perishe: but well is hym that kepeth the lawe
[19] A [stubbourne] seruaunt wyll not be the better for wordes: for though he vnderstande, yet will he not regarde them
[20] Seest thou a man that is hastie to speake vnaduisedly? there is more hope in a foole then in hym
[21] He that delicately bryngeth vp his seruaunt from a chylde, shall make hym his maister at length
[22] An angry man stirreth vp strife, and he that beareth euyll will in his mynde doth much euyll
[23] After pryde commeth a fall: but a lowly spirite bryngeth great worshyp
[24] Who so is partner with a thiefe, hateth his owne soule: he heareth blasphemie and telleth it not foorth
[25] He that feareth men shall haue a fall: but who so putteth his trust in the Lorde, is without daunger
[26] Many there be that seke the princes fauour: but euery mans iudgement commeth from the Lorde
[27] The righteous abhorreth the vngodlye: and the wicked hateth hym that is in the ryght way
