1 A wise sonne wil hearken to his fathers warnyng: but he that is scorneful wil not heare when he is reproued. VP
2 Of the fruite of a wise mans mouth shall eche man eate good thynges: but the wicked shall eate of the fruite of the transgressours. VP
3 He that kepeth his mouth, kepeth his lyfe: but who so rashlye openeth his lippes, destroyeth hym selfe. VP
4 The sluggarde woulde fayne haue and can not get his desire: but the soule of the diligent shall haue plentie. VP
5 A ryghteous man abhorreth lyes: but the vngodly shameth hym selfe, and is put to scilence. VP
6 Ryghteousnesse kepeth the innocent in the way: but vngodlinesse doth ouerthrowe the sinner. VP
7 Some men make them selues riche though they haue nothyng: agayne, some make them selues poore hauyng great riches. VP
8 With goodes a man redeemeth his life: and the poore wyll not be reproued. VP
9 The lyght of the ryghteous maketh ioyfull: but the candell of the vngodly shalbe put out. VP
10 Among the proude there is euer strife: but with the well aduised is wisdome. VP
11 Uaynly gotten goodes are soone spent: but they that be gathered together with the hande, shall encrease. VP
12 Hope deferred greeueth the heart: but whe the desire cometh, it is a tree of life. VP
13 Who so dispiseth the worde, shall perishe for the same: but he that feareth the commaundement, shall haue the rewarde. VP
14 The lawe of the wise is a well of life, to auoyde from the snares of death. VP
15 Good vnderstandyng geueth fauour: but harde is the way of the dispisers. VP
16 A wise man doth all thynges with discretion: but a foole wyll declare his follie. VP
17 An vngodly messenger falleth into mischiefe: but a faythfull embassadour is as health. VP
18 He that thinketh scorne to be refourmed, commeth to pouertie and shame: but who so regardeth correction, shall come to honour. VP
19 When a desire is brought to passe, it deliteth the soule: but fooles count it abhomination to depart from euyll. VP
20 He that goeth in the companie of wise men, shalbe wise: but who so is a companion of fooles, shalbe afflicted. VP
21 Mischiefe foloweth vpon sinners: but the righteous shal haue a good reward. VP
22 He that is vertuous leaueth an heritaunce vnto his childers children, & the riches of ye sinner is layde vp for the iust. VP
23 There is plenteousnesse of foode in the fieldes of the poore: but the fielde not well ordered, is without fruite. VP
24 He that spareth the rodde, hateth his sonne: but who so loueth hym, chasteneth hym betymes. VP
25 The righteous eateth and is satisfied: but the belly of the vngodly hath neuer enough. VP
