1. REJOICE not in ungodly children, if they be multiplied: neither be delighted in them, if the fear of God be not with them.
2. Trust not to their life, and respect not their labours.
3. For better is one that feareth God, than a thousand ungodly children.
4. And it is better to die without children, than to leave ungodly children.
5. By one that is wise a country shall be inhabited, the tribe of the ungodly shall become desolate.
6. Many such things hath my eyes seen, and greater things than these my ear hath heard.
7. In the congregation of sinners a fire shall be kindled, and in an unbelieving nation wrath shall dame out.
8. The ancient giants did not obtain pardon for their sine, who were destroyed trusting to their own strength:
9. And he spared not the place where Lot sojourned, but abhorred them for the pride of their word.
10. He had not pity on them, destroying the whole nation that extolled themselves in their sine.
