1 A false ballaunce is an abomination vnto the Lorde: but a true wayght pleaseth him. VP
2 Where pryde is, there is shame also and confusion: but wheras is lowlinesse, there is wisdome. VP
3 The innocent dealyng of the iust shall leade them: but the wickednesse of the offendours shalbe their owne destruction. VP
4 Riches helpe not in the day of vengeaunce: but ryghteousnesse deliuereth from death. VP
5 The ryghteousnesse of the innocent ordereth his way: but the vngodly shall fall in his owne wickednesse. VP
6 The righteousnesse of the iust shall delyuer them: but the wicked shalbe taken in their owne vngodlynesse. VP
7 When an vngodly man dyeth, his hope is gone: the confidence of riches shall perishe. VP
8 The ryghteous shalbe delyuered out of trouble: and the vngodly shall come in his steade. VP
9 The dissembler with his mouth hurteth his neighbour: but through knowledge shall the iust be deliuered. VP
10 When it goeth well with the ryghteous the citie is mery: and when the vngodly perishe there is gladnesse. VP
11 In the blessyng of the ryghteous the citie is exalted: but it is ouerthrowen by the mouth of the wicked. VP
12 A foole slaundereth his neyghbour: but a wise man holdeth his peace. VP
13 A dissemblyng person wyll discouer priuie thynges: but he that is of a faythfull heart wyll kepe counsayle. VP
14 Where no counsayle is, there the people decay: but wheras many are that can geue counsayle, there is wealth. VP
15 He that is suretie for a straunger shall smart for it: and he that hateth suretishyp is sure. VP
16 A gratious woman getteth honour: but the strong men attayne riches. VP
17 He that is mercifull, doth hym selfe a benefite: but who so hurteth his neyghbour, is a tiraunt. VP
18 The vngodly worketh deceiptfull workes: but he that soweth righteousnesse shall receaue a sure rewarde. VP
19 Lyke as ryghteousnesse bringeth lyfe: euen so to cleaue vnto euyll, bryngeth death. VP
20 The Lorde abhorreth them that be of a corrupt heart: but he hath pleasure in them that are of an vndefiled conuersation. VP
21 Though hand be ioyned in hande, yet the wicked shall not escape: but the seede of the ryghteous shalbe preserued. VP
22 A faire woman without discrete maners, is lyke a ryng of golde in a swines snoute. VP
23 The desire of the ryghteous is acceptable: but the hope of the vngodly is indignation. VP
24 Some man geueth out his goodes and is the richer: but the niggarde hauyng inough, wyll depart from nothyng, and yet is euer in pouertie. VP
25 He that is liberall in geuyng, shall haue plentie: and he that watereth, shalbe watered also hym selfe. VP
26 Who so hoordeth vp his corne, shalbe cursed among the people: but blessyng shall lyght vpon his head that geueth foode. VP
27 He that searcheth for good thynges fyndeth fauour: but who so seketh after mischiefe, it shall happen vnto hym. VP
28 He that trusteth in his riches shall haue a fall: but the ryghteous shall florishe as the greene leafe. VP
29 Who so maketh disquietnesse in his owne house, he shal haue winde for his heritage: and the foole shalbe seruaunt to the wise. VP
30 The fruite of the ryghteous is a tree of life: and he that winneth mens soules is wise. VP
31 If the ryghteous be recompensed vpon earth: howe much more then the vngodly and the sinner? VP
