Proverbs -- 25

{1} These are also proverbs of Solomon, which the men of Hezekiah king of Judah copied out.
{2} It is the glory of God to conceal a thing: but the honour of kings is to search out a matter.
{3} The heaven for height, and the earth for depth, and the heart of kings is unsearchable.
{4} Take away the dross from the silver, and there shall come forth a vessel for the finer.
{5} Take away the wicked from before the king, and his throne shall be established in righteousness.
{6} Put not forth thyself in the presence of the king, and stand not in the place of great men:
{7} For better it is that it be said unto thee, Come up hither; than that thou shouldest be put lower in the presence of the prince whom thine eyes have seen.
{8} Go not forth hastily to strive, lest thou know not what to do in the end thereof, when thy neighbour hath put thee to shame.
{9} Debate thy cause with thy neighbour himself; and discover not a secret to another:
{10} Lest he that heareth it put thee to shame, and thine infamy turn not away.
{11} A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in pictures of silver.
{12} As an earring of gold, and an ornament of fine gold, so is a wise reprover upon an obedient ear.
{13} As the cold of snow in the time of harvest, so is a faithful messenger to them that send him: for he refresheth the soul of his masters.
{14} Whoso boasteth himself of a false gift is like clouds and wind without rain.
{15} By long forbearing is a prince persuaded, and a soft tongue breaketh the bone.
{16} Hast thou found honey? eat so much as is sufficient for thee, lest thou be filled therewith, and vomit it.
{17} Withdraw thy foot from thy neighbour's house; lest he be weary of thee, and so hate thee.
{18} A man that beareth false witness against his neighbour is a maul, and a sword, and a sharp arrow.
{19} Confidence in an unfaithful man in time of trouble is like a broken tooth, and a foot out of joint.
{20} As he that taketh away a garment in cold weather, and as vinegar upon nitre, so is he that singeth songs to an heavy heart.
{21} If thine enemy be hungry, give him bread to eat; and if he be thirsty, give him water to drink:
{22} For thou shalt heap coals of fire upon his head, and the LORD shall reward thee.
{23} The north wind driveth away rain: so doth an angry countenance a backbiting tongue.
{24} It is better to dwell in the corner of the housetop, than with a brawling woman and in a wide house.
{25} As cold waters to a thirsty soul, so is good news from a far country.
{26} A righteous man falling down before the wicked is as a troubled fountain, and a corrupt spring.
{27} It is not good to eat much honey: so for men to search their own glory is not glory.
{28} He that hath no rule over his own spirit is like a city that is broken down, and without walls.

Proverbs -- 26

{1} As snow in summer, and as rain in harvest, so honour is not seemly for a fool.
{2} As the bird by wandering, as the swallow by flying, so the curse causeless shall not come.
{3} A whip for the horse, a bridle for the ass, and a rod for the fool's back.
{4} Answer not a fool according to his folly, lest thou also be like unto him.
{5} Answer a fool according to his folly, lest he be wise in his own conceit.
{6} He that sendeth a message by the hand of a fool cutteth off the feet, and drinketh damage.
{7} The legs of the lame are not equal: so is a parable in the mouth of fools.
{8} As he that bindeth a stone in a sling, so is he that giveth honour to a fool.
{9} As a thorn goeth up into the hand of a drunkard, so is a parable in the mouth of fools.
{10} The great God that formed all things both rewardeth the fool, and rewardeth transgressors.
{11} As a dog returneth to his vomit, so a fool returneth to his folly.
{12} Seest thou a man wise in his own conceit? there is more hope of a fool than of him.
{13} The slothful man saith, There is a lion in the way; a lion is in the streets.
{14} As the door turneth upon his hinges, so doth the slothful upon his bed.
{15} The slothful hideth his hand in his bosom; it grieveth him to bring it again to his mouth.
{16} The sluggard is wiser in his own conceit than seven men that can render a reason.
{17} He that passeth by, and meddleth with strife belonging not to him, is like one that taketh a dog by the ears.
{18} As a mad man who casteth firebrands, arrows, and death,
{19} So is the man that deceiveth his neighbour, and saith, Am not I in sport?
{20} Where no wood is, there the fire goeth out: so where there is no talebearer, the strife ceaseth.
{21} As coals are to burning coals, and wood to fire; so is a contentious man to kindle strife.
{22} The words of a talebearer are as wounds, and they go down into the innermost parts of the belly.
{23} Burning lips and a wicked heart are like a potsherd covered with silver dross.
{24} He that hateth dissembleth with his lips, and layeth up deceit within him;
{25} When he speaketh fair, believe him not: for there are seven abominations in his heart.
{26} Whose hatred is covered by deceit, his wickedness shall be shewed before the whole congregation.
{27} Whoso diggeth a pit shall fall therein: and he that rolleth a stone, it will return upon him.
{28} A lying tongue hateth those that are afflicted by it; and a flattering mouth worketh ruin.

Proverbs -- 27

{1} Boast not thyself of to morrow; for thou knowest not what a day may bring forth.
{2} Let another man praise thee, and not thine own mouth; a stranger, and not thine own lips.
{3} A stone is heavy, and the sand weighty; but a fool's wrath is heavier than them both.
{4} Wrath is cruel, and anger is outrageous; but who is able to stand before envy?
{5} Open rebuke is better than secret love.
{6} Faithful are the wounds of a friend; but the kisses of an enemy are deceitful.
{7} The full soul loatheth an honeycomb; but to the hungry soul every bitter thing is sweet.
{8} As a bird that wandereth from her nest, so is a man that wandereth from his place.
{9} Ointment and perfume rejoice the heart: so doth the sweetness of a man's friend by hearty counsel.
{10} Thine own friend, and thy father's friend, forsake not; neither go into thy brother's house in the day of thy calamity: for better is a neighbour that is near than a brother far off.
{11} My son, be wise, and make my heart glad, that I may answer him that reproacheth me.
{12} A prudent man foreseeth the evil, and hideth himself; but the simple pass on, and are punished.
{13} Take his garment that is surety for a stranger, and take a pledge of him for a strange woman.
{14} He that blesseth his friend with a loud voice, rising early in the morning, it shall be counted a curse to him.
{15} A continual dropping in a very rainy day and a contentious woman are alike.
{16} Whosoever hideth her hideth the wind, and the ointment of his right hand, which bewrayeth itself.
{17} Iron sharpeneth iron; so a man sharpeneth the countenance of his friend.
{18} Whoso keepeth the fig tree shall eat the fruit thereof: so he that waiteth on his master shall be honoured.
{19} As in water face answereth to face, so the heart of man to man.
{20} Hell and destruction are never full; so the eyes of man are never satisfied.
{21} As the fining pot for silver, and the furnace for gold; so is a man to his praise.
{22} Though thou shouldest bray a fool in a mortar among wheat with a pestle, yet will not his foolishness depart from him.
{23} Be thou diligent to know the state of thy flocks, and look well to thy herds.
{24} For riches are not for ever: and doth the crown endure to every generation?
{25} The hay appeareth, and the tender grass sheweth itself, and herbs of the mountains are gathered.
{26} The lambs are for thy clothing, and the goats are the price of the field.
{27} And thou shalt have goats' milk enough for thy food, for the food of thy household, and for the maintenance for thy maidens.

Second Corinthians -- 6

{1} We then, as workers together with him, beseech you also that ye receive not the grace of God in vain.
{2} (For he saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succoured thee: behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.)
{3} Giving no offence in any thing, that the ministry be not blamed:
{4} But in all things approving ourselves as the ministers of God, in much patience, in afflictions, in necessities, in distresses,
{5} In stripes, in imprisonments, in tumults, in labours, in watchings, in fastings;
{6} By pureness, by knowledge, by longsuffering, by kindness, by the Holy Ghost, by love unfeigned,
{7} By the word of truth, by the power of God, by the armour of righteousness on the right hand and on the left,
{8} By honour and dishonour, by evil report and good report: as deceivers, and yet true;
{9} As unknown, and yet well known; as dying, and, behold, we live; as chastened, and not killed;
{10} As sorrowful, yet alway rejoicing; as poor, yet making many rich; as having nothing, and yet possessing all things.
{11} O ye Corinthians, our mouth is open unto you, our heart is enlarged.
{12} Ye are not straitened in us, but ye are straitened in your own bowels.
{13} Now for a recompence in the same, (I speak as unto my children,) be ye also enlarged.
{14} Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?
{15} And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel?
{16} And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.
{17} Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you,
{18} And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.
