Chapter 22:1-29
1 A GOOD _ _ _ _ is rather to be chosen than great riches, and loving favour rather than silver and gold.
2 The rich and poor meet together: the LORD is the _ _ _ _ _ of them all.
3 A prudent man foreseeth the evil, and _ _ _ _ _ _ himself: but the simple pass on, and are punished.
4 By humility and the fear of the LORD are _ _ _ _ _ _, and honour, and life.
5 Thorns and _ _ _ _ _ _ are in the way of the froward: he that doth keep his soul shall be far from them.
6 _ _ _ _ _ up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.
7 The rich ruleth over the poor, and the borrower is servant to the _ _ _ _ _ _.
8 He that soweth _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ shall reap vanity: and the rod of his anger shall fail.
9 He that hath a bountiful eye shall be blessed; for he giveth of his _ _ _ _ _ to the poor.
10 Cast out the scorner, and contention shall go out; yea, _ _ _ _ _ _ and reproach shall cease.
11 He that loveth pureness of _ _ _ _ _, for the grace of his lips the king shall be his friend.
12 The eyes of the LORD preserve knowledge, and he overthroweth the _ _ _ _ _ of the transgressor.
13 The _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ man saith, There is a lion without, I shall be slain in the streets.
14 The mouth of strange women is a deep _ _ _: he that is abhorred of the LORD shall fall therein.
15 Foolishness is bound in the heart of a child; but the _ _ _ of correction shall drive it far from him.
16 He that oppresseth the _ _ _ _ to increase his riches, and he that giveth to the rich, shall surely come to want.
17 Bow down thine ear, and hear the words of the _ _ _ _, and apply thine heart unto my knowledge.
18 For it is a pleasant thing if thou keep them within thee; they shall withal be fitted in thy _ _ _ _.
19 That thy _ _ _ _ _ may be in the LORD, I have made known to thee this day, even to thee.
20 Have not I written to thee excellent _ _ _ _ _ _ in counsels and knowledge,
21 That I might make thee know the certainty of the words of truth; that thou mightest answer the _ _ _ _ _ of _ _ _ _ _ to them that send unto thee?
22 Rob not the poor, because he is poor: neither oppress the _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ in the gate:
23 For the LORD will _ _ _ _ _ their cause, and spoil the soul of those that spoiled them.
24 Make _ _ friendship with an angry man; and with a furious man thou shalt not go:
25 Lest thou _ _ _ _ _ his ways, and get a snare to thy soul.
26 Be not thou one of them that strike _ _ _ _ _, or of them that are sureties for debts.
27 If thou hast nothing to _ _ _, why should he take away thy bed from under thee?
28 _ _ _ _ _ _ not the ancient landmark, which thy fathers have set.
29 Seest thou a man diligent in his business? he shall _ _ _ _ _ before kings; he shall not stand before mean men.
