1 A man seeketh, for satisfaction, going his own way, through all safe counsel, he breaketh.2 A dullard, delighteth not, in understanding, in nothing save the exposing of his own heart.3 When the lawless man cometh in, then cometh also contempt, and, with shame, reproach.4 Deep waters, are the words of a mans mouth,a bubbling brook, the well-spring of wisdom.5 To prefer a lawless man, is not good, thrusting away the righteous, in judgment.6 the lips of a dullard, enter into contention, and his mouth, for blows, crieth out.7 The mouth of a dullard, is his ruin, and, his lips, are a snare to his soul.8 the words of a tattler, are dainties, they, therefore go down into the chambers of the inner man.9 Surely he that is slothful in his work, brother, is he to a master at laying waste.10 A tower of strength, is the Name of Yahweh, thereinto, runneth the righteous, and is safe.11 The substance of a rich man, is his strong city, and like a high wall, in his imagination.12 Before grievous injury, a mans heart is haughty, and, before honour, is humility.13 He that answereth before he heareth, a folly, it is to him, and, a reproach.14 The spirit of a man, sustaineth his sickness, but, a dejected spirit, who can bear it?
