4 The soul of the sluggard desires, and has nothing,but the desire of the diligent shall be fully satisfied.
5 A righteous man hates lies,but a wicked man brings shame and disgrace.
6 Righteousness guards the way of integrity,but wickedness overthrows the sinner.
7 There are some who pretend to be rich, yet have nothing.There are some who pretend to be poor, yet have great wealth.
8 The ransom of a man’s life is his riches,but the poor hear no threats.
9 The light of the righteous shines brightly,but the lamp of the wicked is snuffed out.
10 Pride only breeds quarrels,but wisdom is with people who take advice.
