Proverbs

⁴Proud looks and proud thoughts are sins. They show a person is evil. ⁵Careful planning leads to profit. Acting too quickly leads to poverty. ⁶Wealth that comes from telling lies disappears quickly and leads to death. ⁷The bad things that evil people do will destroy them, because they refuse to do what is right. ⁸Criminals cause trouble wherever they go, but good people are honest and fair. ⁹It is better to live in a small corner on the roof than to share the house with a woman who is always arguing. ¹⁰Evil people always want to do more evil, and they show no mercy to people around them.
