| Proverbs 12:9 | *Better is the poor man that provideth for himself, than he that is glorious and wanteth bread. Ecclesiasticus 10:30. | Glorious. Or a boaster, (Haydock) as many noblemen are, who are involved in debt, Ecclesiasticus 10:30. (Menochius) --- It is better to have a sufficiency, than to be of noble parentage; and starving through a stupid idea, that work would be disgraceful. |
