Warnings Against Vice and Strife
Proverbs 20:1-6
1
¶ Wine is a mocker, strong drink is raging: and whosoever is deceived thereby is not wise.
2
¶ The fear of a king is as the roaring of a lion: whoso provoketh him to anger sinneth against his own soul.
3
¶ It is an honour for a man to cease from strife: but every fool will be meddling.
4
¶ The sluggard will not plow by reason of the cold; therefore shall he beg in harvest, and have nothing.
5
¶ Counsel in the heart of man is like deep water; but a man of understanding will draw it out.
6
¶ Most men will proclaim every one his own goodness: but a faithful man who can find?
