7 There is that maketh himself rich, yet hath nothing: there is that maketh himself poor, yet hath great wealth.
8 The ransom of a man's life is his riches: but the poor heareth no threatening.
9 The light of the righteous rejoiceth: but the lamp of the wicked shall be put out.
10 By pride cometh only contention: but with the well advised is wisdom.
11 Wealth gotten by vanity shall be diminished: but he that gathereth by labour shall have increase.
12 Hope deferred maketh the heart sick: but when the desire cometh, it is a tree of life.
13 Whoso despiseth the word bringeth destruction on himself: but he that feareth the commandment shall be rewarded.
