Geneva(i)
14 Blessed is the man that feareth alway: but he that hardeneth his heart, shall fall into euill.
15 As a roaring lyon, and an hungry beare, so is a wicked ruler ouer the poore people.
16 A prince destitute of vnderstanding, is also a great oppressour: but hee that hateth couetousnes, shall prolong his dayes.
17 A man that doeth violence against the blood of a person, shall flee vnto the graue, and they shall not stay him.
18 He that walketh vprightly, shalbe saued: but he that is froward in his wayes, shall once fall.
19 He that tilleth his land, shall be satisfied with bread: but he that followeth the idle, shall be filled with pouertie.
20 A faythfull man shall abound in blessings, and he that maketh haste to be riche, shall not be innocent.
21 To haue respect of persons is not good: for that man will transgresse for a piece of bread.
22 A man with a wicked eye hasteth to riches, and knoweth not, that pouertie shall come vpon him.
23 He that rebuketh a man, shall finde more fauour at length, then he that flattereth with his tongue.
24 Hee that robbeth his father and mother, and sayth, It is no transgression, is the companion of a man that destroyeth.
25 He that is of a proude heart, stirreth vp strife: but he that trusteth in the Lord, shall be fatte.
26 Hee that trusteth in his owne heart, is a foole: but he that walketh in wisdome, shall be deliuered.
27 He that giueth vnto the poore, shall not lacke: but he that hideth his eyes, shall haue many curses.
28 When the wicked rise vp, men hide them selues: but when they perish, ye righteous increase.
