3 A clever one foresees evil and hides himself, But the simple go on and are punished.
4 The reward of humility is the fear of יהוה, Riches, and esteem and life.
5 Thorns, snares are in the way of the perverse; He who guards his life keeps far away from them.
6 Train up a child in the way he should go, Even when he is old he turns not away from it.
7 The rich rules over the poor, And the borrower is servant to the lender.
8 He who sows unrighteousness reaps trouble, And the rod of his wrath perishes.
9 He who has a good eye is blessed, For he gives of his bread to the poor.
