6 Trying to get rich by lyingis chasing a bubble over deadly snares.
7 The violence of the wicked will sweep them away,because they refuse to do what is right.
8 One’s path may be winding and unfamiliar,but one’s conduct is blameless and right.
9 It is better to dwell in a corner of the housetopthan in a mansion with a quarrelsome woman.
10 The soul of the wicked desires evil;their neighbor finds no pity in their eyes.
11 When scoffers are punished the naive become wise;when the wise succeed, they gain knowledge.
12 The Righteous One appraises the house of the wicked,bringing down the wicked to ruin.
