Proverbs: Chapter 27 (wb)

Proverbs 27
- 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 thy own mouth; a stranger, and not thy own lips.
- 3 A stone [is] heavy, and the sand weighty; but a fool's wrath [is] heavier than both.
- 4 Wrath [is] cruel, and anger [is] outrageous; but who [is] able to stand before envy?
- 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 lotheth a honey-comb; but to the hungry soul every bitter thing is sweet.
- 8 As a bird that wandereth from her nest, so [is] a man that wandereth from his place.
- 9 Ointment and perfume rejoice the heart: so [doth] the sweetness of a man's friend by hearty counsel.
- 10 Thy own friend, and thy father's friend, forsake not; neither go into thy brother's house in the day of thy calamity: [for] better [is] a neighbor [that is] near, than a brother far off.
- 11 My son, be wise, and make my heart glad, that I may answer him that reproacheth me.
- 12 A prudent [man] foreseeth the evil, [and] hideth himself; [but] the simple pass on, [and] are punished.
- 13 Take his garment that is surety for a stranger, and take a pledge of him for a strange woman.
- 14 He that blesseth his friend with a loud voice, rising early in the morning, it shall be counted a curse to him.
- 15 A continual dropping in a very rainy day and a contentious woman are alike.
- 16 Whoever hideth her hideth the wind, and the ointment of his right hand [which] bewrayeth [itself].
- 17 Iron sharpeneth iron; so a man sharpeneth the countenance of his friend.
- 18 He that keepeth the fig-tree shall eat the fruit of it: so he that waiteth on his master shall be honored.
- 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.
- 21 [As] the fining-pot for silver, and the furnace for gold; so [is] a man to his praise.
- 22 Though thou shouldst bray a fool in a mortar among wheat with a pestle, [yet] his foolishness will not depart from him.
- 23 Be thou diligent to know the state of thy flocks, [and] look well to thy herds.
- 24 For riches [are] not for ever: and doth the crown [endure] to every generation?
- 25 The plant appeareth, and the tender grass showeth itself, and herbs of the mountains are gathered.
- 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] maintenance for thy maidens.

Webster Bible Electronic Format.
PUBLIC DOMAIN

February 1992

Beginning in July of 1991 the task of placing the Webster Bible text in electronic format began. The original purpose was to provide Larry Pierce, who produces the On-Line Bible program, with a more modern *public domain* text, similar in content and style to the AV but with a grammar that would provide better comprehension in todays English.

I plan on maintaining an accurate copy of the Webster text. Anyone finding an error should contact me; Anyone desiring to obtain the latest, most correct text, can find it on the Bible Foundation BBS, or can contact me in the following methods:

Bible Foundation http://www.bf.org

I would like to thank the Bible Foundation not only for scanning nearly the entire Webster Bible but for encouraging me to undertake this monumental work; particularly around page 20 when I realized what I had gotten myself into. Special thanks to Jerry Kingery of the Bible Foundation for scanning, and Jerry Hastings for doing some preliminary scan cleaning and making the texts available on the BBS.
