Douay Bible - Proverbs Chapter 12

Proverbs 12:1 He that loveth correction, loveth knowledge: but he that hateth reproof is foolish. Proverbs 12:2 He that is good, shall draw grace from the Lord : but he that trusteth in his own devices doth wickedly. Proverbs 12:3 Men shall not be strengthened by wickedness: and the root of the just shall not be moved. Proverbs 12:4 A diligent woman is a crown to her husband: and she that doth things worthy of confusion, is a rottenness in his bones. Proverbs 12:5 The thoughts of the just are judgments: and the counsels of the wicked are deceitful. Proverbs 12:6 The words of the wicked lie in wait for blood: the mouth of the just shall deliver them. Proverbs 12:7 Turn the wicked, and they shall not be: but the house of the just shall stand firm. Proverbs 12:8 A man shall be known by his learning: but he that is vain and foolish, shall be exposed to contempt. Proverbs 12:9 Better is the poor man that provideth for himself, than he that is glorious and wanteth bread. Proverbs 1

Introduction to the Douay-Rheims Bible

The Douay-Rheims Bible is an English translation of the Latin Vulgate, a 4th-century Latin translation of the Bible. It was published in the late 16th and early 17th centuries for English-speaking Catholics. The New Testament was published in 1582 and the Old Testament in 1609-10. It is considered one of the most influential English Bibles of the time. The Douay-Rheims Bible differs from other versions in several ways: Translation source: Unlike many other English Bibles that were translated from the original Greek and Hebrew texts, the Douay-Rheims was translated from the Latin Vulgate, which was the standard version of the Bible for the Catholic Church for many centuries. Language: The Douay-Rheims uses an archaic form of English, making it difficult for modern readers to understand. Theology: The Douay-Rheims reflects the theology of the Catholic Church, including its views on the authority of the Pope and the sacraments. Footnotes and commentary: The Douay-Rhe
