Chapter 25 | |
| 25:1 | In three things I was beautified, and stood up beautiful both before God and men: the unity of brethren, the love of neighbours, a man and a wife that agree together. |
| 25:2 | Three sorts of men my soul hateth, and I am greatly offended at their life: a poor man that is proud, a rich man that is a liar, and an old adulterer that doateth. |
| 25:3 | If thou hast gathered nothing in thy youth, how canst thou find any thing in thine age? |
| 25:4 | O how comely a thing is judgment for gray hairs, and for ancient men to know counsel! |
| 25:5 | O how comely is the wisdom of old men, and understanding and counsel to men of honour. |
| 25:6 | Much experience is the crown of old men, and the fear of God is their glory. |
| 25:7 | There be nine things which I have judged in mine heart to be happy, and the tenth I will utter with my tongue: A man that hath joy of his children; and he that liveth to see the fall of his enemy: |
| 25:8 | Well is him that dwelleth with a wife of understanding, and that hath not slipped with his tongue, and that hath not served a man more unworthy than himself: |
| 25:9 | Well is him that hath found prudence, and he that speaketh in the ears of them that will hear: |
| 25:10 | O how great is he that findeth wisdom! yet is there none above him that feareth the Lord. |
| 25:11 | But the love of the Lord passeth all things for illumination: he that holdeth it, whereto shall he be likened? |
| 25:12 | The fear of the Lord is the beginning of his love: and faith is the beginning of cleaving unto him. |
| 25:13 | [Give me] any plague, but the plague of the heart: and any wickedness, but the wickedness of a woman: |
| 25:14 | And any affliction, but the affliction from them that hate me: and any revenge, but the revenge of enemies. |
| 25:15 | There is no head above the head of a serpent; and there is no wrath above the wrath of an enemy. |
| 25:16 | I had rather dwell with a lion and a dragon, than to keep house with a wicked woman. |
| 25:17 | The wickedness of a woman changeth her face, and darkeneth her countenance like sackcloth. |
| 25:18 | Her husband shall sit among his neighbours; and when he heareth it shall sigh bitterly. |
| 25:19 | All wickedness is but little to the wickedness of a woman: let the portion of a sinner fall upon her. |
| 25:20 | As the climbing up a sandy way is to the feet of the aged, so is a wife full of words to a quiet man. |
| 25:21 | Stumble not at the beauty of a woman, and desire her not for pleasure. |
| 25:22 | A woman, if she maintain her husband, is full of anger, impudence, and much reproach. |
| 25:23 | A wicked woman abateth the courage, maketh an heavy countenance and a wounded heart: a woman that will not comfort her husband in distress maketh weak hands and feeble knees. |
| 25:24 | Of the woman came the beginning of sin, and through her we all die. |
| 25:25 | Give the water no passage; neither a wicked woman liberty to gad abroad. |
| 25:26 | If she go not as thou wouldest have her, cut her off from thy flesh, and give her a bill of divorce, and let her go. |
