4 Panic and pride wipe out wealth;so too the house of the proud is uprooted.
5 Prayer from the lips of the poor is heard at once,and justice is quickly granted them.
6 Whoever hates correction walks the sinner’s path,but whoever fears the Lord repents in his heart.
7 Glib speakers are widely known,but when they slip the sensible perceive it.
8 Those who build their houses with someone else’s moneyare like those who collect stones for their funeral mounds.
9 A band of criminals is like a bundle of tow;they will end in a flaming fire.
10 The path of sinners is smooth stones,but its end is the pit of Sheol.
