It is as sport to a fool to do mischief: but a man of understanding hath wisdom.

Good understanding giveth favour: but the way of transgressors is hard.

Such is the way of an adulterous woman; she eateth, and wipeth her mouth, and saith, I have done no wickedness.

For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost. For he that in these things serveth Christ is acceptable to God, and approved of men.

How that they told you there should be mockers in the last time, who should walk after their own ungodly lusts.

As a mad man who casteth firebrands, arrows, and death, So is the man that deceiveth his neighbour, and saith, Am not I in sport?

For whoso findeth me findeth life, and shall obtain favour of the LORD.

How long, ye simple ones, will ye love simplicity? and the scorners delight in their scorning, and fools hate knowledge?

So shalt thou find favour and good understanding in the sight of God and man.

A good man obtaineth favour of the LORD: but a man of wicked devices will he condemn.

What man is like Job, who drinketh up scorning like water? Which goeth in company with the workers of iniquity, and walketh with wicked men. For he hath said, It profiteth a man nothing that he should delight himself with God.

How much more abominable and filthy is man, which drinketh iniquity like water?
