24 Some man geueth out his goodes, and is the richer, but ye nygarde (hauynge ynough) wil departe from nothinge, and yet is euer in pouerte. 25 He that is lyberall in geuynge, shal haue plenty: and he that watereth, shalbe watered also himself. 26 Who so hoordeth vp his corne, shalbe cursed amonge the people: but blessynge shal light vpon his heade that selleth it. 27 He that laboureth for honesty fyndeth his desyre: but who so seketh after myschefe, it shal happe vnto him. 28 He that trusteth in his riches, shal haue a fall, but ye rightuous shal florish as the grene leaf. 29 Who so maketh disquyetnesse in his owne house, he shal haue wynde for his heretage, and the foole shal be seruaunt to the wyse. 30 The frute of the rightuous is as the tre of life, a wyse man also wynneth mens soules. 31 Yf ye rightuous be recopesed vpo earth how moch more the the vngodly & ye synner?
