20 A faithful man will have many blessings, but one eager to get rich will not go unpunished.
21 To show partiality is not good— yet for a piece of bread a man may do wrong.
22 A stingy man chases after riches, but does not know that poverty will overtake him.
23 One who rebukes a man will in the end find more favor than one with a flattering tongue.
24 Whoever robs his father or his mother, and says, “It’s not a crime,” is a partner to him who destroys.
25 A greedy soul stirs up strife, but one who trusts in Adonai prospers.
26 Whoever trusts in his own heart is a fool, but he who walks in wisdom will escape.
