7If in a countrey thou seest the oppression of the poore, and the defrauding of iudgement and iustice, be not astonied at the matter: for hee that is higher then the highest, regardeth, and there be higher then they.
8And the abundance of the earth is ouer all: the King also consisteth by the fielde that is tilled.
9He that loueth siluer, shall not be satisfied with siluer, and he that loueth riches, shalbe without the fruite thereof: this also is vanitie.
10When goods increase, they are increased that eate them: and what good commeth to the owners thereof, but the beholding thereof with their eyes?
11The sleepe of him that traueileth, is sweete, whether he eate litle or much: but the sacietie of the riche will not suffer him to sleepe.
