15 As a roaring lion and a hungry bear, so is a wicked ruler over the poor people.
16 The prince void of intelligence is also a great oppressor, but he that hates covetousness shall prolong his days.
17 A man that does violence to the blood of any person shall flee all the way to the grave, and no one shall sustain him.
18 Whosoever walks in integrity shall be saved, but he that is perverse in his ways shall fall into one of them.
19 He that tills his land shall be filled with bread, but he that follows after vain persons shall be filled with poverty.
20 The man of truth shall abound with blessings, but he that makes haste to be rich shall not be absolved.
21 To have respect of persons in judgment is not good; even for a piece of bread, man will transgress.
