 19:1 ¶ Better 2896 [is] the poore 7326 z8802 that walketh 1980 z8802 in his integrity, 8537 then he that is peruerse 6141 x4480 in his lippes, 8193 and is a foole. 3684

 19:2 Also, x1571 that the soule 5315 be without x3808 knowledge, 1847 it is not x3808 good, 2896 and hee that hasteth 213 z8801 with his feete, 7272 sinneth. 2398 z8802

 19:6 Many 7227 will entreate 2470 z8762 the fauour 6440 of the Prince: 5081 and euery man x3605 [is] a friend 7453 to him y376 that giueth gifts. 4976 x376

 19:7 All x3605 the brethren 251 of the poore 7326 z8802 doe hate 8130 z8804 him: howe much more x637 x3588 doe his friends 4828 goe farre 7368 z8804 from x4480 him? Hee pursueth 7291 z8764 [them with] words, 561 [yet] they x1992 are wanting x3808 to him.

 19:8 He that getteth 7069 z8802 wisedome 3820 loueth 157 z8802 his owne soule: 5315 he that keepeth 8104 z8802 vnderstanding 8394 shall find 4672 z8800 good. 2896

 19:9 A false 8267 witnesse 5707 shall not x3808 be vnpunished, 5352 z8735 and hee that speaketh 6315 z8686 lyes, 3577 shall perish. 6 z8799

 19:10 Delight 8588 is not x3808 seemely 5000 for a foole: 3684 much lesse x637 for x3588 a seruant 5650 to haue rule 4910 z8800 ouer princes. 8269

 19:11 The discretion 7922 of a man 120 deferreth 748 z8689 his anger: 639 and [it is] his glory 8597 to passe x5674 ouer y5674 z8800 x5921 a transgression. 6588

 19:12 The kings 4428 wrath 2197 [is] as the roaring 5099 of a lyon: 3715 but his fauour 7522 [is] as dewe 2919 vpon x5921 the grasse. 6212

 19:13 A foolish 3684 sonne 1121 [is] the calamity 1942 of his father; 1 and the contentions 4079 of a wife 802 are a continuall 2956 z8802 dropping. 1812

 19:14 House 1004 and riches, 1952 [are] the inheritance 5159 of fathers; 1 and a prudent 7919 z8688 wife 802 [is] from the LORD. 3068 x4480

 19:15 Slouthfulnesse 6103 casteth 5307 z8686 into a deep sleepe: 8639 and an idle 7423 soule 5315 shall suffer hunger. 7456 z8799

 19:16 He that keepeth 8104 z8802 the commandement, 4687 keepeth 8104 z8802 his owne soule: 5315 [but] hee that despiseth 959 z8802 his wayes, 1870 shall die. 4191 z8799

 19:17 Hee that hath pity 2603 z8802 vpon the poore, 1800 lendeth 3867 z8688 vnto the LORD; 3068 and that which he hath giuen, 1576 will he pay him againe. 7999 z8762

 19:18 Chasten 3256 z8761 thy sonne 1121 while x3588 there is 3426 hope; 8615 and let not x408 thy soule 5315 spare 5375 z8799 for x413 his crying. 4191 z8687

 19:19 A man y1419 of great y1632 x1419 wrath 2534 shall suffer 5375 z8802 punishment: 6066 for x3588 if x518 thou deliuer 5337 z8686 [him], yet x5750 thou must [doe] it againe. 3254 z8686

 19:20 Heare 8085 z8798 counsell, 6098 and receiue 6901 z8761 instruction, 4148 that x4616 thou mayest be wise 2449 z8799 in thy latter x319 end. y319

 19:22 The desire 8378 of a man 120 [is] his kindnesse: 2617 and a poore x7326 man y7326 z8802 x4480 x376 [is] better 2896 then y376 a lyar. 3577

 19:23 The feare 3374 of the LORD 3068 [tendeth] to life, 2416 and [he that hath it] shall abide 3885 z8799 satisfied: 7649 he shall not x1077 be visited 6485 z8735 with euill. 7451
