3He that watcheth his mouth guardeth his soul; but he that openeth wide his lips prepareth himself destruction.
4The sluggard longeth in his soul, and there cometh nothing; but the soul of the diligent will be abundantly gratified.
5The righteous hateth the word of falsehood; but the wicked bringeth shame and dishonor.
6Righteousness keepeth him that is upright on his way; but wickedness perverteth the man of sin.
7There is some one that pretendeth to be rich without having any thing; another that pretendeth to be poor while having abundant wealth.
