Proverbs 28:6-11

⁶Better is a poor man going in his simpleness, than a rich man in his shrewd ways. (Better is a poor person going in his honesty, or in his integrity, than a rich person in all his depraved ways.)

⁷He that keepeth the law, is a wise son; but he that feedeth gluttons, shameth his father.

⁸He that gathereth together riches by usuries, and free(ly) (made) increases, gathereth those together against poor men. (He who gathereth together riches from high interest rates, and exorbitant increases, gathereth them together for him who will give them to the poor.)

⁹His prayer shall be made cursed, that boweth away his ear (or who turneth away his ear), (so) that he hear not the law.

¹⁰He that deceiveth just men in an evil way, shall fall in his perishing; and just men shall wield his goods. (He who deceiveth the righteous in an evil way, shall fall in his perishing; and the righteous shall possess his goods.)

¹¹A rich man seemeth wise to himself; but a poor man prudent shall search him. (A rich person seemeth wise to himself; but a prudent poor person shall search him out, and find him wanting.)
