8If thou seest oppression of the poor, and justice and equity perverted in a province, be not alarmed at the matter. For over the high there is a higher, who watcheth, and there is one higher than they all.
9An advantage to a land in all respects is a king over cultivated ground.
10He that loveth silver shall not be satisfied with silver; and he that loveth riches shall have no profit from them. This also is vanity.
