2Treasures of wickedness profit nothing: But righteousness delivereth from death.
3The Lord will not suffer the soul of the righteous to famish: But he casteth away the substance of the wicked.
4He becometh poor that dealeth with a slack hand: But the hand of the diligent maketh rich.
5He that gathereth in summer is a wise son: But he that sleepeth in harvest is a son that causeth shame.
6Blessings are upon the head of the just: But violence covereth the mouth of the wicked.
7The memory of the just is blessed: But the name of the wicked shall rot.
8The wise in heart will receive commandments: But a prating fool shall fall.
9He that walketh uprightly walketh surely: But he that perverteth his ways shall be known.
