5 Thorns and snares are in the way of the perverse;he who guards his soul will be far from them.
6 Train up a child in the way he should go,and when he is old he will not depart from it.
7 The rich rules over the poor,and the borrower is servant to the lender.
8 He who sows iniquity will reap vanity,and the rod of his anger will fail.
9 He who has a bountiful eye will be blessed,for he gives of his bread to the poor.
10 Cast out the scorner, and contention will go out;yes, strife and reproach will cease.
11 He who loves pureness of heart, for the grace of his lipsthe king will be his friend.
