23When the things that righteous people want happen, it brings good to them and to others, but when the wicked get what they want, it causes everyone else to become angry.
24Some people give their money generously to poor people, but they become richer in spite of that, and some people hold tightly to their money, but they still become poor in spite of that.
25Those who give generously to others will prosper; if you help others, they/someone will help you, too.
26People curse/despise someone who hoards his grain and does not sell it, waiting to get a higher/bigger price for it, but they praise someone who sells it when people need it, even when the price is not high.
27If you sincerely want to do what is right, people will respect you, but if you are wanting to cause trouble, trouble is what you will get.
28Those who trust in their money will disappear like the withered leaves that fall from the trees, but righteous people will keep going strong, like green leaves in the summer.
