Proverbs 22:4-9

⁴By humility and the fear of the LORD Are riches and honor and life.

⁵Thorns and snares are in the way of the deceitful; He that will preserve his life will be far from them.

⁶Train up a child in accordance with his way, And when he is old he will not depart from it.

⁷The rich ruleth over the poor, And the borrower is servant to the lender.

⁸He who soweth iniquity shall reap calamity, And the rod of his punishment is prepared.

⁹He who hath a bountiful eye shall be blessed, Because he giveth of his bread to the poor.
