Proverbs 22 (KJV)

1 A good name is rather to be chosen than great riches, and loving favour rather than silver and gold.

2 The rich and poor meet together: the Lord is the maker of them all.

3 A prudent man foreseeth the evil, and hideth himself: but the simple pass on, and are punished.

6 Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.

9 He that hath a bountiful eye shall be blessed; for he giveth of his bread to the poor.

10 Cast out the scorner (hypocrite), and contention (arguments, controversies) shall go out; yea, strife (fights) and reproach (disgrace) shall cease.

11 He that loveth pureness of heart, for the grace of his lips the king shall be his friend.

15 Foolishness is bound in the heart of a child; but the rod of correction shall drive it far from him.

16 He that oppresseth the poor to increase his riches, and he that giveth to the rich, shall surely come to want.

17 Bow down thine ear, and hear the words of the wise, and apply thine heart unto my knowledge.
18 For it is a pleasant thing if thou keep them within thee; they shall withal be fitted in thy lips.

22 Rob not the poor, because he is poor: neither oppress the afflicted in the gate:

Proverbs 27 (KJV)

1 Boast not thyself of to morrow; for thou knowest not what a day may bring forth.

2 Let another man praise thee, and not thine own mouth; a stranger, and not thine own lips.

5 Open rebuke is better than secret love.

6 Faithful are the wounds of a friend; but the kisses of an enemy are deceitful.

7 The full soul loatheth an honeycomb; but to the hungry soul every bitter thing is sweet.

12 A prudent (acting with or showing care and thought for the future.) man foreseeth the evil, and hideth himself; but the simple pass on, and are punished.

17 Iron sharpeneth iron; so a man sharpeneth the countenance (demeanor) of his friend.

19 As in water face answereth to face, so the heart of man to man.

20 Hell and destruction are never full; so the eyes of man are never satisfied.

24 For riches are not for ever: and doth the crown endure to every generation?

26 The lambs are for thy clothing, and the goats are the price of the field.

27 And thou shalt have goats' milk enough for thy food, for the food of thy household, and for the maintenance for thy maidens.
