8 Whoever amasses wealth by interest and overchargegathers it for the one who is kind to the poor.
9 Those who turn their ears from hearing instruction,even their prayer is an abomination.
10 Those who mislead the upright into an evil waywill themselves fall into their own pit,but the blameless will attain prosperity.
11 The rich are wise in their own eyes,but the poor who are intelligent see through them.
12 When the just triumph, there is great glory;but when the wicked prevail, people hide.
13 Those who conceal their sins do not prosper,but those who confess and forsake them obtain mercy.
14 Happy those who always fear;but those who harden their hearts fall into evil.
