4 Wealth makes many friends,But the poor is separated from his friend.
5 A false witness will not go unpunished,And he who speaks lies will not escape.
6 Many entreat the favor of the nobility,And every man is a friend to one who gives gifts.
7 All the brothers of the poor hate him;How much more do his friends go far from him!He may pursue them with words, yet they abandon him.
8 He who gets wisdom loves his own soul;He who keeps understanding will find good.
9 A false witness will not go unpunished,And he who speaks lies shall perish.
10 Luxury is not fitting for a fool,Much less for a servant to rule over princes.
