8Rich people are able to pay people who want to kill them, with the result that they will be protected, not killed, but poor people do not have to worry about that because no one threatens to kill them.
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.)
