4 Riches and honour and life are the remuneration of humility and of the fear of the Lord.
5 Thorns and snares are in the way of the perverse; he that keeps his soul shall be far from them.
6 Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old, he will not depart from it.
7 The rich rules over the poor, and the borrower is slave to the lender.
8 He that sows iniquity shall reap iniquity, and the rod of his anger shall fail.
9 He that has a merciful eye shall be blessed, for he gives of his bread to the destitute.
10 Cast out the scorner, and contention shall go out; strife and reproach shall cease.
