Proverbs

²⁵It is a snare to the man who devoureth that which is holy, and after vows to make inquiry. ²⁶A wise king scattereth the wicked, and bringeth the wheel over them. ²⁷The spirit of man is the candle of the Lord, searching all the inward parts of the belly. ²⁸Mercy and truth preserve the king: and his throne is upholden by mercy. ²⁹The glory of young men is their strength: and the beauty of old men is the gray head. ³⁰The blueness of a wound cleanseth away evil: so do stripes the inward parts of the belly.
