5 Evildoers do not understand what is right,but those who seek the Lord understand it fully.
6 Better the poor whose way of life is blamelessthan the rich whose ways are perverse.
7 A discerning son heeds instruction,but a companion of gluttons disgraces his father.
8 Whoever increases wealth by taking interest or profit from the pooramasses it for another, who will be kind to the poor.
9 If anyone turns a deaf ear to my instruction,even their prayers are detestable.
10 Whoever leads the upright along an evil pathwill fall into their own trap,but the blameless will receive a good inheritance.
11 The rich are wise in their own eyes;one who is poor and discerning sees how deluded they are.
