Amen! 00:00:38.34\00:00:42.56 We are reading today beginning in Proverbs chapter 27, 00:00:42.60\00:00:46.79 verse 8 and this is the King James version. 00:00:46.82\00:00:50.15 As a bird that wondereth from her nest, so is a man 00:00:50.18\00:00:55.66 that wondereth from his place. 00:00:55.69\00:00:57.47 Ointment and perfume rejoice the heart: so doth the 00:00:57.51\00:01:02.21 sweetness of a man's friend by hearty counsel. 00:01:02.24\00:01:05.77 Thine own friend, and thy fathers friend, forsake not; 00:01:05.80\00:01:10.14 neither go into thy brother's house in the day of thy 00:01:10.18\00:01:13.27 calamity: for better is a neighbor that is near then 00:01:13.30\00:01:16.35 a brother far off. 00:01:16.39\00:01:18.04 My son, be wise, and make my heart glad, that I may 00:01:18.07\00:01:23.09 answer him that reproacheth me. 00:01:23.12\00:01:25.52 A prudent man forseeth the evil, and hideth himself; 00:01:25.55\00:01:29.93 but the simple pass on, and are punished. 00:01:29.97\00:01:34.35 Take his garment that is surety for a stranger, 00:01:34.38\00:01:37.90 and take a pledge of him for a strange woman. 00:01:37.93\00:01:40.24 He that blesseth his friend with a loud voice, rising 00:01:40.28\00:01:44.04 early in the morning, it shall be counted a curse to him. 00:01:44.07\00:01:47.80 A continual dropping on a very rainy day and a 00:01:47.84\00:01:53.20 contentious woman are alike. 00:01:53.24\00:01:56.05 Whosoever hideth her hideth the wind, and the 00:01:56.08\00:01:59.78 ointment of his right hand, which bewrayeth itself. 00:01:59.82\00:02:04.27 Iron sharpeneth iron; so a man sharpeneth the 00:02:04.30\00:02:08.72 countenance of his friend. 00:02:08.75\00:02:10.75 Who so keepeth the fig tree shall eat the fruit 00:02:10.79\00:02:14.34 thereof: so he that waited on his master shall be honored. 00:02:14.37\00:02:19.59 As in water face answereth to face, so the heart 00:02:19.63\00:02:24.82 of man to man. 00:02:24.85\00:02:28.00 Hell and destruction are never full; so the eyes of 00:02:28.04\00:02:32.33 man are never satisfied. 00:02:32.37\00:02:35.40 As the fining pot for silver, and the furnace for 00:02:35.44\00:02:38.67 gold; so is the man to his praise. 00:02:38.71\00:02:43.32 Though thou shouldest bray a fool in a mortar among wheat 00:02:43.35\00:02:48.04 with a pestle, yet will not his foolishness depart from him. 00:02:48.07\00:02:52.72 Be thou diligent to know the state of thy flocks, 00:02:52.76\00:02:57.78 and look well to thy herds. 00:02:57.82\00:02:59.82 For riches are not for ever: and doth the crown endure 00:02:59.85\00:03:04.27 to every generation? 00:03:04.30\00:03:06.60 The hay appeareth, and the tender grass sheweth 00:03:06.64\00:03:09.18 itself, and the herbs of the mountain are gathered. 00:03:09.21\00:03:11.69 The lambs are for thy clothing, and the goats are the 00:03:11.72\00:03:16.12 price of the field. 00:03:16.15\00:03:17.39 And thou shall have goats milk enough for thy food, for 00:03:17.42\00:03:20.43 the food of the household, and for the maintenance 00:03:20.46\00:03:22.76 for thy maidens. 00:03:22.79\00:03:24.84 Continuing in the book of Proverbs chapter 28, 00:03:24.87\00:03:29.17 and this is the King James version. 00:03:29.21\00:03:31.21 The wicked flee when no man pursueth: but the 00:03:31.25\00:03:36.08 righteous are bold as a lion. 00:03:36.11\00:03:38.89 For the transgression of a land many are the princes 00:03:38.92\00:03:43.00 thereof: but by a man of understanding and knowledge the 00:03:43.04\00:03:47.09 state thereof shall be prolonged. 00:03:47.12\00:03:49.53 A poor man that oppresseth the poor is like a sweeping 00:03:49.56\00:03:54.56 rain which leaveth no food. 00:03:54.59\00:03:56.89 They that forsake the law praise the wicked: but such 00:03:56.93\00:04:02.09 as keep the law contend with them. 00:04:02.12\00:04:05.05 Evil men understand not judgment: but they that seek 00:04:05.08\00:04:10.25 the Lord understand all things. 00:04:10.29\00:04:13.15 Better is the poor that walketh in his uprightness, than 00:04:13.18\00:04:18.06 he that is perverse in his ways, though he be rich. 00:04:18.10\00:04:22.17 Whoso keepeth the law is a wise son: but he that is a 00:04:22.20\00:04:26.13 companion of riotous men shameth his father. 00:04:26.17\00:04:29.21 He that by usury and unjust gain increaseth his substance, 00:04:29.25\00:04:34.81 he shall gather it for him that will pity the poor. 00:04:34.85\00:04:38.94 He that turneth away his ear from hearing the law, 00:04:38.98\00:04:43.04 even his prayer shall be an abomination. 00:04:43.07\00:04:45.72 Whosoever causeth the righteous to go astray in an 00:04:45.75\00:04:50.23 evil way, he shall fall himself into his own pit: 00:04:50.27\00:04:54.39 but the upright shall have good things in possession. 00:04:54.42\00:04:59.09 The rich man is wise in his own conceit; but the 00:04:59.13\00:05:03.77 poor that hath understanding searcheth him out. 00:05:03.80\00:05:06.98 When the righteous men do rejoice, there is great 00:05:07.01\00:05:10.49 glory: but when the wicked rise, a man is hidden. 00:05:10.52\00:05:13.92 He that covereth his sins shall not prosper: but whoso 00:05:13.96\00:05:20.18 confesseth and forsaketh them shall have mercy. 00:05:20.21\00:05:24.86 Happy is the man that feareth alway: but he that 00:05:24.89\00:05:30.04 hardeneth his heart shall fall into mischief. 00:05:30.08\00:05:33.71 As a roaring lion, and a raging bear; so is a wicked 00:05:33.75\00:05:38.09 ruler over the poor people. 00:05:38.13\00:05:40.33 The prince that wanteth understanding is also 00:05:40.36\00:05:43.96 a great oppressor: but he that hateth covetousness 00:05:43.99\00:05:47.56 shall prolong his days. 00:05:47.59\00:05:50.50 A man that doeth violence to the blood of any person 00:05:50.53\00:05:53.57 shall flee to the pit; let no man stay him. 00:05:53.61\00:05:57.23 Whoso walketh uprightly shall be saved: but he that 00:05:57.26\00:06:00.70 is perverse in his ways shall fall at once. 00:06:00.73\00:06:03.99 He that tilleth his land shall have plenty of bread: 00:06:04.03\00:06:07.69 but he that followeth after vain persons shall 00:06:07.72\00:06:11.02 have poverty enough. 00:06:11.06\00:06:13.14 A faithful man shall abound with blessings: but he 00:06:13.18\00:06:17.82 that maketh haste to be rich shall not be innocent. 00:06:17.85\00:06:22.33 To have respect of persons is not good: but for 00:06:22.37\00:06:26.82 a piece of bread that man will transgress. 00:06:26.85\00:06:29.90 He that hasteth to be rich hath an evil eye, and 00:06:29.94\00:06:33.55 considereth not that poverty shall come upon him. 00:06:33.59\00:06:37.72 He that rebuketh a man afterwards shall find 00:06:37.76\00:06:42.10 more favor then he that flattereth with the tongue. 00:06:42.14\00:06:46.39 Whoso robbeth his father or his mother, and saith, 00:06:46.42\00:06:50.60 It is no transgression; the same is the companion of a destroyer. 00:06:50.64\00:06:56.06 He that is of a proud heart stirreth up strife; 00:06:56.10\00:07:02.17 but he that putteth his trust in the lord 00:07:02.21\00:07:05.34 shall be made fat. 00:07:05.38\00:07:07.97 He that trusteth in his own heart is a fool: 00:07:08.00\00:07:11.77 but whoso walketh wisely, he shall be delivered. 00:07:11.81\00:07:15.51 He that giveth unto the poor shall not lack: but he 00:07:15.54\00:07:19.56 that hideth his eyes shall have many a curse. 00:07:19.59\00:07:23.20 When the wicked rise, men hide themselves: but when 00:07:23.24\00:07:26.25 they perish, the righteous increase. 00:07:26.29\00:07:29.41 Continuing with Proverbs chapter 29 and this is the 00:07:29.45\00:07:33.18 King James version. 00:07:33.22\00:07:35.02 He that being often reproved hardeneth his neck, 00:07:35.05\00:07:39.73 shall suddenly be destroyed, and that without remedy. 00:07:39.77\00:07:43.49 When the righteous are in authority, the people 00:07:43.52\00:07:47.17 rejoice: but when the wicked beareth rule, the people mourn. 00:07:47.21\00:07:52.07 Whoso loveth wisdom rejoiceth his father: but he that 00:07:52.11\00:07:56.94 keepeth company with harlots spendeth his substance. 00:07:56.97\00:08:01.31 The king by judgment establisheth the land: but he 00:08:01.34\00:08:05.64 that receiveth gifts overthroweth it. 00:08:05.68\00:08:08.66 A man that flattereth his neighbor spreadeth 00:08:08.70\00:08:12.94 a net for his feet. 00:08:12.97\00:08:15.80 In the transgression of an evil man there is a snare: 00:08:15.83\00:08:18.82 but the righteous doth sing and rejoice. 00:08:18.86\00:08:23.30 The righteous considereth the cause of the poor: 00:08:23.34\00:08:26.63 but the wicked regardeth not to know it. 00:08:26.67\00:08:29.97 Scornful men bring a city into a snare: but wise men 00:08:30.01\00:08:35.35 turn away wrath. 00:08:35.39\00:08:37.92 If a wise man contendeth with a foolish man, whether 00:08:37.96\00:08:42.57 he rage or laugh, there is no rest. 00:08:42.61\00:08:46.48 The bloodthirsty hate the upright: but the just 00:08:46.52\00:08:50.18 seek his soul. 00:08:50.22\00:08:52.37 A fool uttereth all his mind: but a wise man keepeth 00:08:52.41\00:08:58.07 it in till afterwards. 00:08:58.11\00:09:00.79 If a ruler hearken to lies, all his servants are wicked. 00:09:00.82\00:09:06.25 The poor and the deceitful man meet together: 00:09:06.28\00:09:09.53 the Lord lighteneth both their eyes. 00:09:09.56\00:09:12.00 The king that faithfully judgeth the poor, 00:09:12.04\00:09:15.30 his throne shall be established for ever. 00:09:15.33\00:09:18.64 The rod and reproof give wisdom: but a Child left 00:09:18.68\00:09:24.69 to himself bringeth his mother to shame. 00:09:24.72\00:09:28.47 When the wicked are multiplied, transgression 00:09:28.51\00:09:32.41 increaseth: but the righteous shall see their fall. 00:09:32.45\00:09:36.71 Correct thy son, and he shall give thee rest; yea, 00:09:36.74\00:09:40.96 he shall give delight unto thy soul. 00:09:41.00\00:09:44.38 Where there is no vision, the people perish: but he 00:09:44.41\00:09:50.16 that keepeth the law, happy is he. 00:09:50.20\00:09:53.56 A servant will not be corrected by words: for though 00:09:53.60\00:09:58.21 he understand he will not answer. 00:09:58.25\00:10:00.93 Seest thou a man that is hasty in his words? 00:10:00.97\00:10:04.44 There is more hope of a fool than of him. 00:10:04.48\00:10:07.35 He that delicately bringeth up his servant from 00:10:07.39\00:10:10.98 a child shall have him become his son at the length. 00:10:11.01\00:10:14.94 An angry man stirreth up strife, a furious man 00:10:14.98\00:10:18.87 aboundeth in transgression. 00:10:18.91\00:10:21.50 A man's pride shall bring him low: but honor shall 00:10:21.54\00:10:25.72 uphold the humble in spirit. 00:10:25.75\00:10:28.27 Whoso its partner with a thief hateth his own soul: 00:10:28.30\00:10:32.84 he heareth cursing, and bewrayeth it not. 00:10:32.88\00:10:36.17 The fear of man bringeth a snare: but whoso putteth 00:10:36.21\00:10:41.51 his trust in the Lord shall be safe. 00:10:41.55\00:10:45.40 Many seek the ruler's favor; but every man's judgment 00:10:45.43\00:10:49.05 cometh from the Lord. 00:10:49.08\00:10:51.54 An unjust man is an abomination to the just: and he 00:10:51.58\00:10:54.96 that is upright in the way is abomination to the wicked. 00:10:54.99\00:10:58.62 Continuing in the book of Proverbs chapter 30 and this 00:10:58.66\00:11:02.25 is the King James version. 00:11:02.29\00:11:04.00 The words of Agur the son of Jakeh, even the 00:11:04.04\00:11:08.62 prophecy: the man spake unto Ithiel, even unto Ithiel 00:11:08.65\00:11:12.71 and U'cal, 00:11:12.74\00:11:14.10 Surely I am more brutish, than any man, and have not 00:11:14.14\00:11:16.27 the understanding of a man. 00:11:16.30\00:11:18.00 I neither learned wisdom, nor have the knowledge 00:11:18.03\00:11:20.71 of the holy. 00:11:20.75\00:11:22.17 Who hath ascended up into heaven, or descended? 00:11:22.20\00:11:24.82 Who hath gathered the wind in his fists?
