Proverbs

¹A GOOD name is rather to be chosen than great riches, and loving favour rather than silver and gold. ²The rich and the poor meet together: the LORD is the maker of them all. ³A prudent man seeth the evil, and hideth himself: but the simple pass on, and suffer for it. ⁴The reward of humility and the fear of the LORD is riches, and honour, and life. ⁵Thorns and snares are in the way of the froward: he that keepeth his soul shall be far from them. ⁶Train up a child in the way he should go, and even when he is old he will not depart from it.
