7 The rich rule over the poor,and borrowers are servants to lenders.
8 Those who plan evil will receive trouble.Their cruel anger will come to an end.
9 Generous people will be blessed,because they share their food with the poor.
10 Get rid of the one who makes fun of wisdom.Then fighting, quarrels, and insults will stop.
11 Whoever loves pure thoughts and kind wordswill have even the king as a friend.
12 The Lord guards knowledge,but he destroys false words.
13 The lazy person says, “There’s a lion outside!I might get killed out in the street!”
