1 A wise son
2 A man shall eat good by the fruit of his mouth;
3 He that guardeth his mouth keepeth his life;
4 The soul of the sluggard desireth, and hath nothing;
5 A righteous man hateth lying;
6 Righteousness guardeth him that is upright in the way;
7 There is that maketh himself rich, yet hath nothing:
8 The ransom of a man’s life is his riches;
9 The light of the righteous rejoiceth;
10 By pride cometh only contention;
11 Wealth gotten by vanity shall be diminished;
12 Hope deferred maketh the heart sick;
13 Whoso despiseth the word bringeth destruction on himself;
14 The law of the wise is a fountain of life,
15 Good understanding giveth favor;
16 Every prudent man worketh with knowledge;
17 A wicked messenger falleth into evil;
18 Poverty and shame
19 The desire accomplished is sweet to the soul;
20 Walk with wise men, and thou shalt be wise;
21 Evil pursueth sinners;
22 A good man leaveth an inheritance to his children’s children;
23 Much food
24 He that spareth his rod hateth his son;
25 The righteous eateth to the satisfying of his soul;
