20 A man of truth has many blessings, But one in a hurry to be rich does not go unpunished.
21 To show partiality is not good, Because for a piece of bread a man would transgress.
22 A man with an evil eye runs after wealth, And does not know that poverty awaits him.
23 He who reproves a man finds more favour afterward Than he who flatters with the tongue.
24 He who robs his father or his mother, And says, “It is no transgression,” He is a companion to a destroyer.
25 He who is greedy stirs up strife, But he who trusts in יהוה prospers.
26 He who trusts in his own heart is a fool, But he who walks wisely is delivered.
