1 The proverbs of Solomon. A wise son maketh a glad father: but a foolish son is the heaviness of his mother.
2 Treasures of wickedness profit nothing: but righteousness delivereth from death.
3 The LORD will not suffer the soul of the righteous to famish: but he thrusteth away the desire of the wicked.
4 He becometh poor that dealeth with a slack hand: but the hand of the diligent maketh rich.
