1A wise son is the teaching of the father; but he that is a scorner, heareth not, when he is reproved.
2A man shall be filled with goods of the fruit of his mouth; but the soul of unpious men is wicked.
3He that keepeth his mouth, keepeth his soul; but he that is unwary to speak, shall feel evils.
4A slow man will, and will not; but the soul of them that work shall be made fat.
5A just [or rightwise] man shall loathe a false word; but a wicked man shameth, and shall be shamed.
6Rightfulness [or Rightwiseness] keepeth the way of an innocent man; but wickedness deceiveth a sinner.
7A man is as rich, when he hath nothing; and a man is as poor, when he is in many riches.
8 [The] Redemption of the soul of [a] man is his riches; but he that is poor, suffereth not blaming.
9The light of just [or rightwise] men maketh glad; but the lantern of wicked men shall be quenched.
10Strives be ever among proud men; but they that do all things with counsel, be governed by wisdom.
11Hasted chattel [or substance], that is, gotten hastily, shall be made less; but that that is gathered little and little with hand, shall be multiplied.
12Hope which is delayed, tormenteth the soul; a tree of life is desire coming.
13He that backbiteth anything, bindeth himself into [the] time to coming [or to come]; but he that dreadeth the commandment, shall live in peace.
14The law of a wise man is a well of life; that he bow away from the falling of death, that is, of sin, and of hell.
15Good teaching shall give grace; a swallow is in the way of despisers.
16A fell [or witting] man doeth all things with counsel; but he that is a fool, shall open folly.
17The messenger of a wicked man shall fall into evil; a faithful messenger is health.
18Neediness and shame is to him that forsaketh teaching; but he that assenteth to a blamer, shall be glorified.
19Desire, if it is [ful] filled, delighteth the soul; fools loathe them that flee evils.
20He that goeth with wise men, shall be wise; the friend of fools shall be made like them.
21Evil pursueth sinners; and goods shall be given to just [or rightwise] men.
22A good man shall leave after him heirs, sons, and the sons of sons; and the chattel [or substance] of a sinner is kept to a just [or rightwise] man.
23Many meats be in the newly-tilled fields of fathers; and be gathered to other men without doom.
24He that spareth the rod, hateth his son; but he that loveth him, teacheth busily.
25A just [or rightwise] man eateth, and [ful] filleth his soul; but the womb of wicked men is unable to be filled.
