잠언 11장 Coverdale Bible
- 1 A false balaunce is an abhominacion vnto the LORDE, but a true weight pleaseth him.
- 2 Where pryde is, there is shame also and confucion: but where as is lowlynes, there is wysdome.
- 3 The innocent dealynge of the iust shal lede them, but the vnfaithfulnesse of the despysers shalbe their owne destruccion.
- 4 Riches helpe not in the daye of vengeaunce, but rightuousnesse delyuereth fro death.
- 5 The rightuousnes of ye innocent ordreth his waye, but the vngodly shal fall in his owne wickednesse.
- 6 The rightuousnesse of the iust shal delyuer them, but the despysers shalbe taken in their owne vngodlynesse.
- 7 When an vngodly man dyeth, his hope is gone, the confydence of riches shal perish.
- 8 The rightuous shalbe delyuered out of trouble, & the vngodly shal come in his steade.
- 9 Thorow ye mouth of ye dyssembler is his neghboure destroyed, but thorow knowlege shal the iust be delyuered.
- 10 When it goeth well with the rightuous, the cite is mery: and when the vngodly perish, there is gladnesse.
- 11 When the iust are in wealth, the cite prospereth: but whan the vngodly haue the rule, it decayeth.
- 12 A foole bryngeth vp a slaunder of his neghboure, but a wyse man wil kepe it secrete.
- 13 A dyssemblynge person wil discouer preuy thinges, but he that is of a faithfull hert, will kepe councel.
- 14 Where no good councel is there the people decaye: but where as are many that can geue councell, there is wealth.
- 15 He that is suertye for a straunger, hurteth himself: but he that medleth not with suerteshippe, is sure.
- 16 A gracious woma manteyneth honestie, as for the mightie, they manteyne ryches.
- 17 He yt hath a gentle liberall stomacke, is mercifull: but who so hurteth his neghbor, is a tyraut.
- 18 The laboure of the vngodly prospereth not, but he that soweth rightuosnes, shal receaue a sure rewarde.
- 19 Like as rightuousnes bryngeth life, eue so to cleue vnto euell, bryngeth death.
- 20 The LORDE abhorreth a fayned hert, but he hath pleasure in them that are vndefyled.
- 21 It shal not helpe ye wicked, though they laye all their hondes together, but the sede of the rightuous shalbe preserued.
- 22 A fayre woman without discrete maners, is like a rynge of golde in a swynes snoute.
- 23 The iust laboure for peace and traquylite, but the vngodly for disquyetnesse.
- 24 Some man geueth out his goodes, and is the richer, but ye nygarde (hauynge ynough) wil departe from nothinge, and yet is euer in pouerte.
- 25 He that is lyberall in geuynge, shal haue plenty: and he that watereth, shalbe watered also himself.
- 26 Who so hoordeth vp his corne, shalbe cursed amonge the people: but blessynge shal light vpon his heade that selleth it.
- 27 He that laboureth for honesty fyndeth his desyre: but who so seketh after myschefe, it shal happe vnto him.
- 28 He that trusteth in his riches, shal haue a fall, but ye rightuous shal florish as the grene leaf.
- 29 Who so maketh disquyetnesse in his owne house, he shal haue wynde for his heretage, and the foole shal be seruaunt to the wyse.
- 30 The frute of the rightuous is as the tre of life, a wyse man also wynneth mens soules.
- 31 Yf ye rightuous be recopesed vpo earth how moch more the the vngodly & ye synner?
