1Many haue sinned for a smal matter: & he that seeketh for abundance will turne his eies away. 2As a naile sticketh fast betweene the ioynings of the stones: so doth sinne sticke close betweene buying and selling. 3Unlesse a man hold himselfe diligently in the feare of the Lord, his house shall soone be ouerthrowen. 4As when one sifteth with a sieue, the refuse remaineth, so the filth of man in his talke.
