Chapter 20
Wine
is
a
mocker,
strong
drinke
is
raging:
and
whosoeuer
is
deceiued
thereby,
is
not
wise.
2
The
feare
of
a
king,
is
as
the
roaring
of
a
Lion:
who
so
prouoketh
him
to
anger,
sinneth
against
his
owne
soule.
3
It
is
an
honour
for
a
man
to
cease
from
strife:
but
euery
foole
will
be
medling.
4
The
sluggard
will
not
plow
by
reason
of
the
cold;
therefore
shall
he
begge
in
haruest,
and
haue
nothing.
5
Counsell
in
the
heart
of
man
is
like
deepe
water:
but
a
man
of
vnderstanding
will
draw
it
out.
6
Most
men
will
proclaime
euery
one
his
owne
goodnes:
but
a
faithfull
man
who
can
finde?
7
The
iust
man
walketh
in
his
integritie:
his
children
are
blessed
after
him.
8
A
king
that
sitteth
in
the
throne
of
iudgement,
scattereth
away
all
euill
with
his
eyes.
9
Who
can
say,
I
haue
made
my
heart
cleane,
I
am
pure
from
my
sinne?
10
Diuers
weights,
and
diuers
measures,
both
of
them
are
alike
abomination
to
the
Lord.
11
Euen
a
childe
is
knowen
by
his
doings,
whether
his
worke
be
pure,
and
whether
it
be
right.
12
The
hearing
eare,
and
the
seeing
eye,
the
Lord
hath
made
euen
both
of
them.
13
Loue
not
sleepe,
lest
thou
come
to
pouertie:
open
thine
eyes,
and
thou
shalt
be
satisfied
with
bread.
14
It
is
nought,
it
is
nought
(saith
the
buyer:)
but
when
he
is
gone
his
way,
then
he
boasteth.
15
There
is
gold,
and
a
multitude
of
Rubies:
but
the
lips
of
knowledge
are
a
precious
iewell.
16
Take
his
garment
that
is
suerty
for
a
stranger:
and
take
a
pledge
of
him
for
a
strange
woman.
17
Bread
of
deceit
is
sweet
to
a
man:
but
afterwards
his
mouth
shall
be
filled
with
grauell.
18
Euery
purpose
is
established
by
counsell:
and
with
good
aduice
make
warre.
19
He
that
goeth
about
as
a
tale-bearer,
reueileth
secrets;
therefore
meddle
not
with
him
that
flattereth
with
his
lippes.
20
Who
so
curseth
his
father
or
his
mother,
his
lampe
shall
be
put
out
in
obscure
darkenesse.
21
An
inheritance
may
be
gotten
hastily
at
the
beginning:
but
the
ende
thereof
shall
not
be
blessed.
22
Say
not
thou,
I
will
recompence
euil:
but
wait
on
the
Lord,
and
he
shall
saue
thee.
23
Diuers
waights
are
an
abomination
vnto
the
Lord:
and
a
false
ballance
is
not
good.
24
Mans
goings
are
of
the
Lord;
how
can
a
man
then
vnderstand
his
owne
way?
25
It
is
a
snare
to
the
man
who
deuoureth
that
which
is
holy:
and
after
vowes,
to
make
inquirie.
26
A
wise
king
scattereth
the
wicked,
&
bringeth
the
wheele
ouer
them.
27
The
spirit
of
man
is
the
candle
of
the
Lord,
searching
all
the
inward
parts
of
the
belly.
28
Mercy
and
trueth
preserue
the
king:
and
his
throne
is
vpholden
by
mercy.
29
The
glory
of
yong
men
is
their
strength:
and
the
beautie
of
old
men
is
the
gray
head.
30
The
blewnes
of
a
wound
cleanseth
away
euill:
so
doe
stripes
the
inward
parts
of
the
belly.
