1 Therfor we that han so greet a cloude of witnessis put to, do we awei al charge, and synne stondinge aboute vs, and bi pacience renne we to the batel purposid to vs,
31 Therfor whether ye eten, or drynken, or don ony other thing, do ye alle thingis in to the glorie of God.
14 Where a gouernour is not, the puple schal falle; but helthe of the puple is, where ben many counsels.
5 Sotheli the Lord apperide to Salomon bi sleep in the nyyt, and seide, Axe thou that, that thou wolt, that Y yyue to thee.
6 And Salomon seide, Thou hast do greet merci with thi seruaunt Dauid, my fadir, as he yede in thi siyt, in treuthe, and riytfulnesse, and riytful herte with thee; thou hast kepte to hym thi greet merci, and hast youun to hym a sone, sittynge on his trone, as it is to dai.
7 And now, Lord God, thou hast maad thi seruaunt to regne for Dauid, my fadir; forsothe Y am a litil child, and not knowynge myn outgoynge and entryng.
8 And thi seruaunt is in the myddis of the puple, which thou hast chose, of puple with outen noumbre, that may not be noumbrid and rikened, for multitude.
9 Therfor thou schalt yyue to thi seruaunt an herte able to be tauyt, that is, liytned of thee, that he may deme the puple, and iuge bitwixe good and yuel; for who may deme this puple, thi puple, this miche puple?
10 Therfor the world pleside bifore the Lord, that Salomon hadde axid sich a thing.
11 And the Lord seide to Salomon, For thou axidist this word, and axidist not to thee many daies, nether richessis, nether the lyues of thin enemyes, but thou axidist to thee wisdom to deme doom, lo!
12 Y haue do to thee vpe thi wordis, and Y haue youe to thee a wyse herte and vndirstondynge, in so myche that no man bifor thee was lijk thee, nether schal rise aftir thee.
5 Haue thou trist in the Lord, of al thin herte; and triste thou not to thi prudence.
6 In alle thi weies thenke thou on hym, and he schal dresse thi goyngis.
16 For al scripture inspirid of God is profitable to teche, to repreue, to chastice, to lerne in riytwisnes, that the man of God be parfit, lerud to al good werk.
7 And whanne thei camen in to Mysie, thei assaieden to go in to Bithynye, and the spirit of Jhesu suffride not hem.
6 In alle thi weies thenke thou on hym, and he schal dresse thi goyngis.
11 For Y knowe the thouytis whiche Y thenke on you, seith the Lord, the thouytis of pees, and not of turment, that Y yyue to you an ende and pacience.
1 And profetis and doctouris weren in the chirche that was at Antioche, in which Barnabas, and Symount, that was clepid Blac, and Lucius Cironense, and Manaen, that was the soukynge fere of Eroude tetrarke, and Saul weren.
2 And whanne thei mynystriden to the Lord, and fastiden, the Hooli Goost seide to hem, Departe ye to me Saul and Barnabas, in to the werk to which Y haue takun hem.
3 Thanne thei fastiden, and preieden, and leiden hondis on hem, and leten hem go.
33 Lottis ben sent into the bosum; but tho ben temperid of the Lord.
1 He that wole go a wei fro a frend, sekith occasiouns; in al tyme he schal be dispisable.
2 A fool resseyueth not the wordis of prudence; no but thou seie tho thingis, that ben turned in his herte.
3 A wickid man, whanne he cometh in to depthe of synnes, dispisith; but sclaundre and schenschipe sueth hym.
4 Deep watir is the wordis of the mouth of a man; and a stronde fletinge ouer is the welle of wisdom.
5 It is not good to take the persoone of a wickid man in doom, that thou bowe awei fro the treuthe of dom.
6 The lippis of a fool medlen hem silf with chidyngis; and his mouth excitith stryues.
7 The mouth of a fool is defoulyng of hym; and hise lippis ben the fallynge of his soule.
8 The wordis of a double tungid man ben as symple; and tho comen til to the ynnere thingis of the wombe. Drede castith doun a slowe man; forsothe the soulis of men turned in to wymmens condicioun schulen haue hungur.
9 He that is neisch, and vnstidfast in his werk, is the brother of a man distriynge hise werkis.
10 A strongeste tour is the name of the Lord; a iust man renneth to hym, and schal be enhaunsid.
11 The catel of a riche man is the citee of his strengthe; and as a stronge wal cumpassinge hym.
12 The herte of man is enhaunsid, bifor that it be brokun; and it is maad meke, bifore that it be glorified.
13 He that answerith bifore that he herith, shewith hym silf to be a fool; and worthi of schenschipe.
14 The spirit of a man susteyneth his feblenesse; but who may susteyne a spirit liyt to be wrooth?
5 And if ony of you nedith wisdom, axe he of God, which yyueth to alle men largeli, and vpbreidith not; and it schal be youun to hym.
14 And this is the trist which we han to God, that what euer thing we axen aftir his wille, he schal here vs.
9 If we knowlechen oure synnes, he is feithful and iust, that he foryyue to vs oure synnes, and clense vs from al wickidnesse.
9 Forsothe his wijf seide to hym, Dwellist thou yit in thi symplenesse? Curse thou God, and die.
10 And Joob seide, Thou hast spoke as oon of the fonned wymmen; if we han take goodis of the hond of the Lord, whi forsothe suffren we not yuels? In alle these thingis Joob synnede not in hise lippis.
