20. Before judgement examine yourself; And in the hour of visitation you shall find forgiveness.
21. Humble yourself before you be sick; And in the time of sins show repentance.
22. Let nothing hinder you to pay your vow in due time; And wait not until death to be justified.
23. Before you make a vow, prepare yourself; And be not as a man that tempts the Lord.
24. Think upon the wrath that shall be in the days of the end, And the time of vengeance, when he turns away his face.
25. In the days of fulness remember the time of hunger, And poverty and lack in the days of wealth.
26. From morning until evening the time changes; And all things are speedy before the Lord.
27. A wise man will fear in everything; And in days of sinning he will beware of offence.
28. Every man of understanding knows wisdom; And he will give thanks to him that found her.
29. They that were of understanding in sayings became also wise themselves, And poured forth apt proverbs.
30. Go not after your lusts; And refrain yourself from your appetites.
31. If you give fully to your soul the delight of her desire, She will make you the laughing stock of your enemies.
32. Make not merry in much luxury; Neither be tied to the expense thereof.
