24:12	If thou sayest, Behold, we knew it not: doth not he that pondereth the heart, consider it? and he that keepeth thy soule, doth not he know it? and shall not hee render to euery man according to his workes?
24:13	My sonne, eate thou honie, because it is good, and the honie combe, which is sweete to thy taste.

24:19	Fret not thy selfe because of euill men; neither be thou enuious at the wicked.
24:20	For there shall be no reward to the euill man: the candle of the wicked shall be put out.
24:21	My sonne, feare thou the Lord, and the king: and medle not with them that are giuen to change.

24:31	And loe, it was all growen ouer with thornes, and nettles had couered the face thereof, and the stone wall therof was broken downe:
24:32	Then I saw, and considered it well, I looked vpon it, and receiued instruction.
24:33	Yet a little sleepe, a little slumber, a little folding of the handes to sleepe:
24:34	So shall thy pouertie come, as one that traueileth, and thy want, as an armed man.

24:6	For with discretion must warres be taken in hand: and where as are many that can geue counsaile, there is health

24:13	My sonne, eate hony, for it is good, and the hony combe, for it is sweete vnto thy mouth.
24:14	So shall the knowledge of wisdome be vnto thy soule, if thou finde it, and there shall be an ende, and thine hope shall not be cut off.

24:24	He that saith to the wicked, Thou art righteous, him shall the people curse, and the multitude shall abhorre him.
