16A king in need of revenues is a great oppressor: But he that hates injustice shall live a long time.
17He that becomes surety for a man charged with murder Shall be an exile, and not in safety.
17aChasten thy son, and he shall love thee, And give honor to thy soul: He shall not obey a sinful nation.
18He that walks justly is assisted: But he that walks in crooked ways shall be entangled therein.
19He that tills his own land shall be satisfied with bread: But he that follows idleness shall have plenty of poverty.
20A man worthy of credit shall be much blessed: But the wicked shall not be unpunished.
21He that reverences not the persons of the just is not good: Such a one will sell a man for a morsel of bread.
22An envious man makes haste to be rich, And knows not that the merciful man will have the mastery over him.
