Proverbs

³It is an honour for a man to keep aloof from strife: but every fool will be quarrelling. ⁴The slothful will not plow by reason of the winter; therefore he shall beg in harvest, and have nothing. ⁵Counsel in the heart of man is like deep water; but a man of understanding will draw it out. ⁶Most men wilt proclaim every one his own kindness: but a faithful man who can find? ⁷A just man that walketh in his integrity, blessed are his children after him. ⁸A king that sitteth on the throne of judgment scattereth away all evil with his eyes. ⁹Who can say, I have made my heart clean, I am pure from my sin?
