3The man that loveth wisdom causeth his father to rejoice; but he that keepeth company with harlots wasteth his wealth.
4A king will through the exercise of justice establish the welfare of a land; but one that loveth gifts overthroweth it.
5A man that flattereth his neighbor spreadeth a net for his steps.
6In the transgression of a man there is an evil snare: but the righteous ever singeth and rejoiceth.
7The righteous considereth the cause of the indigent: but the wicked will not understand the knowledge of justice.
