Chapter 18
Through
desire
a
man
hauing
separated
himselfe,
seeketh
and
intermedleth
with
all
wisedome.
2
A
foole
hath
no
delight
in
vnderstanding,
but
that
his
heart
may
discouer
it
selfe.
3
When
the
wicked
commeth,
then
commeth
also
contempt,
and
with
ignominie,
reproch.
4
The
words
of
a
mans
mouth,
are
as
deepe
waters,
and
the
well-spring
of
wisedome
as
a
flowing
brooke.
5
It
is
not
good
to
accept
the
person
of
the
wicked,
to
ouerthrowe
the
righteous
in
iudgement.
6
A
fooles
lips
enter
into
contention,
and
his
mouth
calleth
for
strokes.
7
A
fooles
mouth
is
his
destruction,
and
his
lips
are
the
snare
of
his
soule.
8
The
words
of
a
tale
bearer
are
as
wounds,
and
they
goe
downe
into
the
innermost
parts
of
the
belly.
9
Hee
also
that
is
slouthful
in
his
worke,
is
brother
to
him
that
is
a
great
waster.
10
The
name
of
the
Lord
is
a
a
strong
tower:
the
righteous
runneth
into
it,
and
is
safe.
11
The
rich
mans
wealth
is
his
strong
citie:
and
as
an
high
wall
in
his
owne
conceit.
12
Before
destruction
the
heart
of
man
is
haughtie,
and
before
honour
is
humilitie.
13
He
that
answereth
a
matter
before
he
heareth
it,
it
is
folly
and
shame
vnto
him.
14
The
spirit
of
a
man
will
sustaine
his
infirmitie:
but
a
wounded
spirit
who
can
beare?
15
The
heart
of
the
prudent
getteth
knowledge;
and
the
eare
of
the
wise
seeketh
knowledge.
16
A
mans
gift
maketh
roome
for
him,
&
bringeth
him
before
great
men.
17
He
that
is
first
in
his
owne
cause,
seemeth
iust;
but
his
neighbour
commeth
and
searcheth
him.
18
The
lot
causeth
contentions
to
cease,
and
parteth
betweene
the
mighty.
19
A
brother
offended
is
harder
to
be
wonne
then
a
strong
citie:
and
their
contentions
are
like
the
barres
of
a
castle.
20
A
mans
belly
shall
be
satisfied
with
the
fruite
of
his
mouth;
and
with
the
increase
of
his
lippes
shall
he
be
filled.
21
Death
and
life
are
in
the
power
of
the
tongue;
and
they
that
loue
it
shall
eate
the
fruite
thereof.
22
Who
so
findeth
a
wife,
findeth
a
good
thing,
and
obtaineth
fauour
of
the
Lord.
23
The
poore
vseth
intreaties,
but
the
rich
answereth
roughly.
24
A
man
that
hath
friends
must
shewe
himselfe
friendly:
and
there
is
a
friend
that
sticketh
closer
then
a
brother.
