1 A good name is to be chosen rather than great riches,Loving favor rather than silver and gold.
2 The rich and the poor have this in common,The Lord is the maker of them all.
3 A prudent man foresees evil and hides himself,But the simple pass on and are punished.
4 By humility and the fear of the LordAre riches and honor and life.
5 Thorns and snares are in the way of the perverse;He who guards his soul will be far from them.
6 Train up a child in the way he should go,And when he is old he will not depart from it.
