3 The Lord will not suffer the soul of the righteous to famish, but wickedness shall cast out the wicked.
4 He that deals with a slack hand becomes poor, but the hand of the diligent makes rich.
5 He that gathers in summer is a wise son, but he that sleeps in harvest is a son that causes shame.
6 Blessings are upon the head of the just, but the mouth of the wicked covers violence.
7 The memory of the just is blessed, but the name of the wicked shall stink.
8 The wise in heart will receive the commandments, but he who speaks foolishness shall fall.
9 He that walks in integrity walks securely, but he that perverts his ways shall be broken.
