2 Ja sam luði od svakoga, i razuma èovjeèijega nema u mene.
Surely I am more foolish then any man, and haue not the vnderstanding of a man in me.
3 Niti sam uèio mudrosti niti znam svetijeh stvari.
For I haue not learned wisedome, nor atteined to the knowledge of holy things.
4 Ko je izašao na nebo i opet sišao? ko je skupio vjetar u pregršti svoje? ko je svezao vode u plašt svoj? ko je utvrdio sve krajeve zemlji? kako mu je ime? i kako je ime sinu njegovu? znaš li?
Who hath ascended vp to heauen, and descended? Who hath gathered the winde in his fist? Who hath bound the waters in a garment? Who hath established all the endes of the world? What is his name, and what is his sonnes name, if thou canst tell?
5 Sve su rijeèi Božije èiste; on je štit onima koji se uzdaju u nj.

7 Za dvoje molim te; nemoj me se oglušiti dok sam živ:
Two things haue I required of thee: denie me them not before I die.
8 Taštinu i rijeè lažnu udalji od mene; siromaštva ni bogatstva ne daj mi, hrani me hljebom po obroku mom,
Remooue farre from me vanitie and lyes: giue me not pouertie, nor riches: feede me with foode conuenient for me,
9 Da ne bih najedavši se odrekao se tebe i rekao: ko je Gospod? ili osiromašivši da ne bih krao i uzalud uzimao ime Boga svojega.
Least I be full, and denie thee, and say, Who is the Lord? or least I be poore and steale, and take the Name of my God in vaine.

33 Kad se razbija mlijeko, izlazi maslo; i ko jako nos utire, izgoni krv; tako ko draži na gnjev, zameæe svaðu.
When one churneth milke, he bringeth foorth butter: and he that wringeth his nose, causeth blood to come out: so he that forceth wrath, bringeth foorth strife.
