Proverbs 19:1-5 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

1. Better is the poor man, that walketh in his simplicity, than a rich man that is perverse in his lips, and unwise.

2. Where there is no knowledge of the soul, there is no good: and he that is hasty with his feet shall stumble.

3. The folly of a man supplanteth his seeps: and he fretteth in his mind against God.

4. Riches make many friends: but from the poor man, even they whom he had, depart.

5. A false witness shall not be unpunished: and he that speaketh lies shall not escape.
