7 A rich person rules poor people,and a borrower is a slave to a lender.
8 Whoever plants injustice will harvest trouble,and this weapon of his own fury will be destroyed.
9 Whoever is generous will be blessedbecause he has shared his food with the poor.
10 Drive out a mocker, and conflict will leave.Quarreling and abuse will stop.
11 Whoever loves a pure heart and whoever speaks graciouslyhas a king as his friend.
12 The Lord’s eyes watch over knowledge,but he overturns the words of a treacherous person.
13 A lazy person says,“There’s a lion outside!I’ll be murdered in the streets!”
