Proverbs 13:5-10

⁵A righteous man hates an unjust word: But an ungodly man is ashamed, and will have no confidence.

⁷There are some who, having nothing, enrich themselves: And there are some who bring themselves down in the midst of much wealth.

⁸A man’s own wealth is the ransom of his life: But the poor endures not threatening.

⁹The righteous always have light: But the light of the ungodly is quenched.

^9aCrafty souls go astray in sins: But just men pity, and are merciful.

¹⁰A bad man does evil with insolence: But they that are judges of themselves are wise.
