2 The rich and poor meet together the LORD is the maker of them all

3 A prudent man foreseeth the evil and hideth himself but the simple pass on and are punished

4 By humility and the fear of the LORD are riches and honour and life

5 Thorns and snares are in the way of the froward he that doth keep his soul shall be far from them

6 Train up a child in the way he should go and when he is old he will not depart from it

7 The rich ruleth over the poor and the borrower is servant to the lender __

8 He that soweth iniquity shall reap vanity and the rod of his anger shall fail

9 He that hath a bountiful eye shall be blessed for he giveth of his bread to the poor

10 Cast out the scorner and contention shall go out yea strife and reproach shall cease

11 He that loveth pureness __ of heart for the grace of his lips the king shall be his friend

12 The eyes of the LORD preserve knowledge and he overthroweth the words of the transgressor

13 The slothful man saith There is a lion without I shall be slain in the streets

14 The mouth of strange women is a deep pit he that is abhorred of the LORD shall fall therein

15 Foolishness is bound in the heart of a child but the rod of correction shall drive it far from him

16 He that oppresseth the poor to increase his riches and he that giveth to the rich shall surely come to want

17 Bow down thine ear and hear the words of the wise and apply thine heart unto my knowledge

18 For it is a pleasant thing if thou keep them within thee they shall withal be fitted in thy lips

19 That thy trust may be in the LORD I have made known to thee this day even to thee

20 Have not I written to thee excellent things in counsels and knowledge

21 That I might make thee know the certainty of the words of truth that thou mightest answer the words of truth to them that send unto thee

22 Rob not the poor because he is poor neither oppress the afflicted in the gate

23 For the LORD will plead their cause and spoil the soul of those that spoiled them

24 Make no friendship with an angry man and with a furious man thou shalt not go

25 Lest thou learn his ways and get a snare to thy soul

26 Be not thou one of them that strike hands or of them that are sureties for debts

27 If thou hast nothing to pay why should he take away thy bed from under thee

28 Remove not the ancient landmark which thy fathers have set

29 Seest thou a man diligent in his business he shall stand before kings he shall not stand before mean men
