Proverbs 24:1-6 ▼

1 Be not thou enuious to folow wicked men, and desire not to be among them:

2 For their heart imagineth to do hurt, and their lippes talke mischiefe.

3 Thorowe wysdome is an house buylded, & with vnderstanding is it set vp.

4 Thorowe discretion shall the chaumbers be filled with all costly and pleasaunt riches.

5 A wise man is euer strong: yea a man of vnderstanding increaseth strength.

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