Chapter 25
These
are
also
Prouerbes
of
Solomon,
which
the
men
of
Hezekiah
king
of
Iudah
copied
out.
2
It
is
the
glory
of
God
to
conceale
a
thing:
but
the
honour
of
Kings
is
to
search
out
a
matter.
3
The
heauen
for
height,
and
the
earth
for
depth,
and
the
heart
of
Kings
is
vnsearchable.
4
Take
away
the
drosse
from
the
siluer,
and
there
shall
come
foorth
a
vessell
for
the
finer.
5
Take
away
the
wicked
from
before
the
king,
and
his
throne
shalbe
established
in
righteousnes.
6
Put
not
forth
thy
selfe
in
the
presence
of
the
king,
and
stand
not
in
the
place
of
great
men.
7
For
better
it
is
that
it
be
said
vnto
thee,
Come
vp
hither;
then
that
thou
shouldest
be
put
lower
in
the
presence
of
the
Prince
whom
thine
eies
haue
seene.
8
Goe
not
forth
hastily
to
striue,
lest
thou
know
not
what
to
doe
in
the
ende
thereof,
when
thy
neighbour
hath
put
thee
to
shame.
9
Debate
thy
cause
with
thy
neighbour
himselfe;
and
discouer
not
a
secret
to
another:
10
Lest
he
that
heareth
it,
put
thee
to
shame,
and
thine
infamie
turne
not
away.
11
A
word
fitly
spoken
is
like
apples
of
gold
in
pictures
of
siluer.
12
As
an
eare-ring
of
gold,
and
an
ornament
of
fine
gold,
so
is
a
wise
reprouer
vpon
an
obedient
eare.
13
As
the
cold
of
snow
in
the
time
of
haruest,
so
is
a
faithfull
messenger
to
them
that
send
him:
for
hee
refresheth
the
soule
of
his
masters.
14
Who
so
boasteth
himselfe
of
a
false
gift,
is
like
cloudes
and
winde
without
raine.
15
By
long
forbearing
is
a
Prince
perswaded,
and
a
soft
tongue
breaketh
the
bone.
16
Hast
thou
found
hony?
eate
so
much
as
is
sufficient
for
thee:
lest
thou
be
filled
therewith,
and
vomit
it.
17
Withdraw
thy
foote
from
thy
neighbours
house:
lest
he
be
weary
of
thee,
and
so
hate
thee.
18
A
man
that
beareth
false
witnes
against
his
neighbour,
is
a
maule,
and
a
sword,
and
a
sharpe
arrow.
19
Confidence
in
an
vnfaithfull
man
in
time
of
trouble,
is
like
a
broken
tooth,
and
a
foot
out
of
ioynt.
20
As
hee
that
taketh
away
a
garment
in
cold
weather;
and
as
vineger
vpon
nitre;
so
is
he
that
singeth
songs
to
an
heauy
heart.
21
If
thine
enemie
be
hungry,
giue
him
bread
to
eate:
and
if
hee
be
thirstie,
giue
him
water
to
drinke.
22
For
thou
shalt
heape
coales
of
fire
vpon
his
head,
and
the
Lord
shall
reward
thee.
23
The
North
winde
driueth
away
raine:
so
doeth
an
angrie
countenance
a
backbiting
tongue.
24
It
is
better
to
dwell
in
a
corner
of
the
house
top,
then
with
a
brawling
woman,
and
in
a
wide
house.
25
As
cold
waters
to
a
thirstie
soule:
so
is
good
newes
from
a
farre
countrey.
26
A
righteous
man
falling
downe
before
the
wicked,
is
as
a
troubled
fountaine,
aud
a
corrupt
spring.
27
It
is
not
good
to
eat
much
hony:
so
for
men
to
search
their
owne
glory,
is
not
glory.
28
Hee
that
hath
no
rule
ouer
his
owne
spirit,
is
like
a
citie
that
is
broken
downe,
and
without
walles.
