7 Whoever keeps the Torah is a wise son;but he who is a companion of gluttons shames his father.
8 He who increases his wealth by excessive interestgathers it for one who has pity on the poor.
9 He who turns away his ear from hearing the Torah,even his prayer is an abomination.
10 Whoever causes the upright to go astray in an evil way,he will fall into his own trap;but the blameless will inherit good.
11 The rich man is wise in his own eyes;but the poor who has understanding sees through him.
12 When the righteous triumph, there is great glory;but when the wicked rise, men hide themselves.
13 He who conceals his sins doesn’t prosper,but whoever confesses and renounces them finds mercy.
