Intende no hurte vnto thy neghboure, seynge he hopeth to dwell in rest by the. 30 Stryue not lightly wt eny man, where as he hath done ye no harme. 31 Folowe not a wicked man, and chose none of his wayes: 32 for the LORDE abhorreth the frowarde, but his secrete is amonge the righteous. 33 The curse of the LORDE is in the house of the vngodly, but he blesseth the dwellinges of the righteous. 34 As for the scornefull, he shal laugh the to scorne, but he shal geue grace vnto the lowly. 35 The wyse shal haue honor in possession, but shame is the promocio that fooles shal haue.
