15The loue of God is onourable wisdom.
16The bigynnyng of wisdom is the drede of the Lord; and it is formyd togidere in the wombe with feithful men, and it goith with chosun wymmen, and is knowun with iust men and feithful.
17The drede of the Lord is religiouste of kunnyng.
18Religiouste schal kepe, and schal iustifie the herte; and schal yyue myrthe and ioie.
19It schal be wel to hym that dredith God; and he schal be blessid in the daies of his coumfort.

26Vndurstonding, and religiouste of kunnyng ben in the tresouris of wisdom; but wisdom is abhomynacioun to synners.
27The drede of the Lord puttith awei synne,
28for he that is with out drede, mai not be iustified; for whi the wrathfulnesse of his pride is the destriyng of hym.
29A pacient man schal suffre til in to tyme; and aftirward schal be yelding of mirthe.
30Good wit schal hide the wordis of hym til in to a tyme; and the lippis of many men schulen telle out the wit of hym.

32but the worschipyng of God is abhomynacioun to a synnere.
33A! sone, coueitynge wisdom, kepe thou riytfulnesse, and God schal yyue it to thee.
34For whi the drede of the Lord is wisdom, and kunnyng, and that
35that is wel plesaunt to hym is feith and myldenesse; and God schal fille the tressours of hym.
36Be thou not rebel, and vnbileueful to the drede of the Lord; and neiye thou not to hym in double herte.
37Be thou not an ypocrite in the siyt of men; and be thou not sclaundrid in thi lippis.
38Take thou kepe to tho, lest thou falle, and brynge disonour to thi soule; and lest God schewe thi priuytees,
39and hurtle thee doun in the myddis of the synagoge;
40for thou neiyidist wickidli to the Lord, and thin herte was ful of gile and of falsnesse.
