Wycliffe's Bible with Modern Spelling

SIR 29:18

18 A man promiseth for his neigh-bour; and when he hath lost rever-ence, that is, shamefastness before God and man, the borrower shall be forsaken of him. Worst [[or Most shrewd]] promise, by which the neighbour promised falsely to deliver his borrow, hath lost [[or spoiled]] many loving men, and hath moved them as the waves of the sea. It going in compass made mighty men to pass over [[or to go out]]; and they wan-dered about among alien folks.
