Proverbs 13:5-10

⁵A just man shall loathe a false word; but a wicked man shameth, and shall be shamed. (The righteous loathe a lie; but the wicked shame, and shall be shamed.)

⁶Rightfulness keepeth (safe) the way of an innocent man; but wickedness deceiveth a sinner.

⁷A man is as rich, when he hath nothing; and a man is as poor, when he is in many riches. (A person can be rich, even when he hath nothing; and a person can be poor, even when he hath many riches.)

⁸The Redemption of the soul of a man is his riches; but he that is poor, suffereth not blaming. (The ransom for a man’s lifeis his riches; but he who is poor, shall not even suffer threats.)

⁹The light of just men maketh glad; but the lantern of wicked men shall be quenched. (The light of the righteous maketh happy, or inspireth; but the lantern of the wicked shall be quenched.)

¹⁰Strives be ever among proud men; but they that do all things with counsel, be governed by wisdom. (There is always strife, or arguments, among the proud; but they who do all things with advice, be governed by wisdom.)
