37 Jhesus seide to him, Thou schalt loue thi Lord God, of al thin herte, and in al thi soule, and in al thi mynde.

2 Sauere ye tho thingis, that ben aboue, not tho that ben on the erthe.

15 Therfor, britheren, se ye, hou warli ye schulen go;16 not as vnwise men, but as wise men, ayenbiynge tyme, for the daies ben yuele.

3 For Y seie, bi the grace that is youun to me, to alle that ben among you, that ye sauere no more than it bihoueth to sauere, but for to sauere to sobrenesse; and to ech man, as God hath departid the mesure of feith.

13 Blessid is the man that fyndith wisdom, and which flowith with prudence.

8 but he that holdith stabli the mynde, loueth his soule, and the kepere of prudence schal fynde goodis.

17 Yrun is whettid bi irun; and a man whettith the face of his frend.

5 A fool scorneth the techyng of his fadir; but he that kepith blamyngis, schal be maad wisere. Moost vertu schal be in plenteuouse riytfulnesse; but the thouytis of wickid men schulen be drawun vp bi the roote.

28 Also a foole, if he is stille, schal be gessid a wijs man; and, if he pressith togidre hise lippis, he schal be gessid an vndurstondynge man.

12 A fel man seynge yuel was hid; litle men of wit passinge forth suffriden harmes.

24 Therfor ech man that herith these my wordis, and doith hem, schal be maad lijk to a wise man, that hath bildid his hous on a stoon.

13 Who is wijs, and tauyt among you? schewe he of good lyuyng his worching, in myldenesse of his wisdom.

2 For Y demede not me to kunne ony thing among you, but Crist Jhesu, and hym crucified.

20 For the vnuysible thingis of hym, that ben vndurstondun, ben biholdun of the creature of the world, bi tho thingis that ben maad, yhe, and the euerlastynge vertu of hym and the godhed, so that thei mowe not be excusid.

18 for in myche wisdom is myche indignacioun, and he that encressith kunnyng, encreessith also trauel.
