2 The rich and poor meet together; Jehovah is the maker of them all.
3 A prudent man seeth the evil, and hideth himself; but the simple pass on, and are punished.
4 The reward of humility and the fear of Jehovah is riches, and honour, and life.
5 Thorns and snares are in the way of the perverse: he that keepeth his soul holdeth himself far from them.
6 Train up the child according to the tenor of his way, and when he is old he will not depart from it.
7 The rich ruleth over the poor; and the borrower is servant to the lender.
8 He that soweth unrighteousness shall reap iniquity, and the rod of his wrath shall have an end.
