19:1 Better is the poor man, that walketh in his simplicity, than a rich man that is perverse in his lips and unwise.

19:1 melior est pauper qui ambulat in simplicitate sua quam torquens labia insipiens

19:2 Where there is no knowledge of the soul, there is no good: and he that is hasty with his feet shall stumble.

19:2 ubi non est scientia animae non est bonum et qui festinus est pedibus offendit

19:3 The folly of a man supplanteth his steps: and he fretteth in his mind against God.

19:3 stultitia hominis subplantat gressus eius et contra Deum fervet animo suo

19:4 Riches make many friends: but from the poor man, even they whom he had, depart.

19:4 divitiae addunt amicos plurimos a paupere autem et hii quos habuit separantur

19:5 A false witness shall not be unpunished: and he that speaketh lies, shall not escape.

19:5 testis falsus non erit inpunitus et qui mendacia loquitur non effugiet

19:6 Many honour the person of him that is mighty, and are friends of him that giveth gifts.

19:6 multi colunt personam potentis et amici sunt dona tribuenti

19:7 The brethren of the poor man hate him: moreover also his friends have departed far from him. He that followeth after words only, shall have nothing.

19:7 fratres hominis pauperis oderunt eum insuper et amici procul recesserunt ab eo qui tantum verba sectatur nihil habebit

19:8 But he that possesseth a mind, loveth his own soul, and he that keepeth prudence, shall find good things.

19:8 qui autem possessor est mentis diligit animam suam et custos prudentiae inveniet bona

19:9 A false witness shall not be unpunished: and he that speaketh lies, shall perish.

19:9 testis falsus non erit inpunitus et qui loquitur mendacia peribit

19:10 Delicacies are not seemly for a fool: nor for a servant to have rule over princes.

19:10 non decent stultum deliciae nec servum dominari principibus

19:11 The learning of a man is known by patience: and his glory is to pass over wrongs.

19:11 doctrina viri per patientiam noscitur et gloria eius est iniqua praetergredi

19:12 As the roaring of a lion, so also is the anger of a king: and his cheerfulness as the dew upon the grass.

19:12 sicut fremitus leonis ita et regis ira et sicut ros super herbam ita hilaritas eius

19:13 A foolish son is the grief of his father: and a wrangling wife is like a roof continually dropping through.

19:13 dolor patris filius stultus et tecta iugiter perstillantia litigiosa mulier

19:14 House and riches are given by parents: but a prudent wife is properly from the Lord.

19:14 domus et divitiae dantur a patribus a Domino autem proprie uxor prudens

19:15 Slothfulness casteth into a deep sleep, and an idle soul shall suffer hunger.

19:15 pigredo inmittit soporem et anima dissoluta esuriet

19:16 He that keepeth the commandment, keepeth his own soul: but he that neglecteth his own way, shall die.

19:16 qui custodit mandatum custodit animam suam qui autem neglegit vias suas mortificabitur

19:17 He that hath mercy on the poor, lendeth to the Lord: and he will repay him.

19:17 feneratur Domino qui miseretur pauperis et vicissitudinem suam reddet ei

19:18 Chastise thy son, despair not: but to the killing of him set not thy soul.

19:18 erudi filium tuum ne desperes ad interfectionem autem eius ne ponas animam tuam

19:19 He that is impatient, shall suffer damage: and when he shall take away, he shall add another thing.

19:19 qui inpatiens est sustinebit damnum et cum rapuerit aliud adponet

19:20 Hear counsel, and receive instruction, that thou mayst be wise in thy latter end.

19:20 audi consilium et suscipe disciplinam ut sis sapiens in novissimis tuis

19:21 There are many thoughts in the heart of a man: but the will of the Lord shall stand firm.

19:21 multae cogitationes in corde viri voluntas autem Domini permanebit

19:22 A needy man is merciful: and better is the poor than the lying man.

19:22 homo indigens misericors est et melior pauper quam vir mendax

19:23 The fear of the Lord is unto life: and he shall abide in the fulness without being visited with evil.

19:23 timor Domini ad vitam et in plenitudine commorabitur absque visitatione pessimi

19:24 The slothful hideth his hand under his armpit, and will not so much as bring it to his mouth.

19:24 abscondit piger manum suam sub ascella nec ad os suum adplicat eam

19:25 The wicked man being scourged, the fool shall be wiser: but if thou rebuke a wise man, he will understand discipline.

19:25 pestilente flagellato stultus sapientior erit sin autem corripueris sapientem intelleget disciplinam

19:26 He that afflicteth his father, and chaseth away his mother, is infamous and unhappy.

19:26 qui adfligit patrem et fugat matrem ignominiosus est et infelix

19:27 Cease not, O my son, to hear instruction, and be not ignorant of the words of knowledge.

19:27 non cesses fili audire doctrinam nec ignores sermones scientiae

19:28 An unjust witness scorneth judgment: and the mouth of the wicked devoureth iniquity.

19:28 testis iniquus deridet iudicium et os impiorum devorat iniquitatem

19:29 Judgments are prepared for scorners: and striking hammers for the bodies of fools.

19:29 parata sunt derisoribus iudicia et mallei percutientes stultorum corporibus
