When thou sittest³⁴²⁷ to eat³⁸⁹⁸ with a ruler,⁴⁹¹⁰ consider⁹⁹⁵ diligently⁹⁹⁵ what is before⁶⁴⁴⁰ thee:

And put⁷⁷⁶⁰ a knife⁷⁹¹⁵ to thy throat,³⁹³⁰ if thou be a man given¹¹⁶⁷ to appetite.⁵³¹⁵

Be not desirous¹⁸³ of his dainties:⁴³⁰³ for they are deceitful³⁵⁷⁷ meat.³⁸⁹⁹

Psalms 141:4

Labour³⁰²¹ not to be rich:⁶²³⁸ cease²³⁰⁸ from thine own wisdom.⁹⁹⁸

Wilt thou set⁵⁷⁷⁴ thine eyes⁵⁸⁶⁹ upon that which is not? for riches certainly⁶²¹³ make⁶²¹³ themselves wings;³⁶⁷¹ they fly away⁵⁷⁷⁴ as an eagle⁵⁴⁰⁴ toward heaven.⁸⁰⁶⁴

Eat³⁸⁹⁸ thou not the bread³⁸⁹⁹ of him that hath an evil⁷⁴⁵¹ eye,⁵⁸⁶⁹ neither desire¹⁸³ thou his dainty meats:⁴³⁰³

For as he thinketh⁸¹⁷⁶ in his heart,⁵³¹⁵ so is he: Eat³⁹⁸ and drink,⁸³⁵⁴ saith⁵⁵⁹ he to thee; but his heart³⁸²⁰ is not with thee.

The morsel⁶⁵⁹⁵ which thou hast eaten³⁹⁸ shalt thou vomit up,⁶⁹⁵⁸ and lose⁷⁸⁴³ thy sweet⁵²⁷³ words.¹⁶⁹⁷

Speak¹⁶⁹⁶ not in the ears²⁴¹ of a fool:³⁶⁸⁴ for he will despise⁹³⁶ the wisdom⁷⁹²² of thy words.⁴⁴⁰⁵

Remove⁵²⁵³ not the old⁵⁷⁶⁹ landmark;¹³⁶⁶ and enter⁹³⁵ not into the fields⁷⁷⁰⁴ of the fatherless:³⁴⁹⁰

Deuteronomy 19:14; Proverbs 22:28

For their redeemer¹³⁵⁰ is mighty;²³⁸⁹ he shall plead⁷³⁷⁸ their cause⁷³⁷⁹ with thee.

Apply⁹³⁵ thine heart³⁸²⁰ unto instruction,⁴¹⁴⁸ and thine ears²⁴¹ to the words⁵⁶¹ of knowledge.¹⁸⁴⁷

Withhold⁴⁵¹³ not correction⁴¹⁴⁸ from the child:⁵²⁸⁸ for if thou beatest⁵²²¹ him with the rod,⁷⁶²⁶ he shall not die.⁴¹⁹¹

Thou shalt beat⁵²²¹ him with the rod,⁷⁶²⁶ and shalt deliver⁵³³⁷ his soul⁵³¹⁵ from the grave.⁷⁵⁸⁵

My son,¹¹²¹ if thine heart³⁸²⁰ be wise,²⁴⁴⁹ my heart³⁸²⁰ shall rejoice,⁸⁰⁵⁵ even mine.⁵⁸⁹

Yea, my reins³⁶²⁹ shall rejoice,⁵⁹³⁷ when thy lips⁸¹⁹³ speak¹⁶⁹⁶ right things.⁴³³⁹

Let not thine heart³⁸²⁰ envy⁷⁰⁶⁵ sinners:²⁴⁰⁰ but be thou in the fear³³⁷⁴ of Yahweh³⁰⁶⁸ all the day³¹¹⁷ long.

For surely there is³⁴²⁶ an end;³¹⁹ and thine expectation⁸⁶¹⁵ shall not be cut off.³⁷⁷²

Hear⁸⁰⁸⁵ thou, my son,¹¹²¹ and be wise,²⁴⁴⁹ and guide⁸³³ thine heart³⁸²⁰ in the way.¹⁸⁷⁰

Be not among winebibbers;³¹⁹⁶ among riotous eaters²¹⁵¹ of flesh:¹³²⁰

For the drunkard⁵⁴³³ and the glutton²¹⁵¹ shall come to poverty:³⁴²³ and drowsiness⁵¹²⁴ shall clothe³⁸⁴⁷ a man with rags.⁷¹⁶⁸

Hearken⁸⁰⁸⁵ unto thy father¹ that begat³²⁰⁵ thee, and despise⁹³⁶ not thy mother⁵¹⁷ when she is old.²²⁰⁴

Buy⁷⁰⁶⁹ the truth,⁵⁷¹ and sell⁴³⁷⁶ it not; also wisdom,²⁴⁵¹ and instruction,⁴¹⁴⁸ and understanding.⁹⁹⁸

The father¹ of the righteous⁶⁶⁶² shall greatly¹⁵²⁴ rejoice:¹⁵²³ and he that begetteth³²⁰⁵ a wise²⁴⁵⁰ child shall have joy⁸⁰⁵⁵ of him.

Thy father¹ and thy mother⁵¹⁷ shall be glad,⁸⁰⁵⁵ and she that bare³²⁰⁵ thee shall rejoice.¹⁵²³

My son,¹¹²¹ give⁵⁴¹⁴ me thine heart,³⁸²⁰ and let thine eyes⁵⁸⁶⁹ observe⁷⁵²¹ my ways.¹⁸⁷⁰

For a whore²¹⁸¹ is a deep⁶⁰¹³ ditch;⁷⁷⁴⁵ and a strange⁵²³⁷ woman is a narrow⁶⁸⁶² pit.⁸⁷⁵

She also lieth in wait⁶⁹³ as for a prey,²⁸⁶³ and increaseth³²⁵⁴ the transgressors⁸⁹⁸ among men.¹²⁰

Who hath woe?¹⁸⁸ who hath sorrow?¹⁷ who hath contentions?⁴⁰⁷⁹ who hath babbling?⁷⁸⁷⁹ who hath wounds⁶⁴⁸² without cause?²⁶⁰⁰ who hath redness²⁴⁴⁸ of eyes?⁵⁸⁶⁹

Daniel 1:8

They that tarry long³⁰⁹ at the wine;³¹⁹⁶ they that go⁹³⁵ to seek²⁷¹³ mixed wine.⁴⁴⁶⁹

Proverbs 31:6

Look⁷²⁰⁰ not thou upon the wine³¹⁹⁶ when it is red,¹¹⁹ when it giveth⁵⁴¹⁴ his colour⁵⁸⁶⁹ in the cup,³⁵⁶³ when it moveth¹⁹⁸⁰ itself aright.⁴³³⁹

At the last³¹⁹ it biteth⁵³⁹¹ like a serpent,⁵¹⁷⁵ and stingeth⁶⁵⁶⁷ like an adder.⁶⁸⁴⁸

Thine eyes⁵⁸⁶⁹ shall behold⁷²⁰⁰ strange women,²¹¹⁴ and thine heart³⁸²⁰ shall utter¹⁶⁹⁶ perverse things.⁸⁴¹⁹

Yea, thou shalt be as he that lieth down⁷⁹⁰¹ in the midst³⁸²⁰ of the sea,³²²⁰ or as he that lieth⁷⁹⁰¹ upon the top⁷²¹⁸ of a mast.²²⁶⁰

They have stricken⁵²²¹ me, shalt thou say, and I was not sick;²⁴⁷⁰ they have beaten¹⁹⁸⁶ me, and I felt³⁰⁴⁵ it not: when shall I awake?⁶⁹⁷⁴ I will seek¹²⁴⁵ it yet³²⁵⁴ again.
