11The rich person may be wise in his own eyes, but a poor person who has understanding will find him out.
12When the righteous triumph, there is great glory; but when the wicked arise, people are sought out.
13The one who hides his sins will not prosper, but the one who confesses them and forsakes them will be shown mercy.
14The one who always lives with reverence is blessed, but whoever hardens his heart will fall into trouble.
15Like a roaring lion or a charging bear is a wicked ruler over poor people.
