16. He that oppresseth the poor, to increase his own riches, shall himself give to one that is richer, and shall be in need.
17. Incline thy ear, and hear the words of the wise: and apply thy heart to my doctrine:
18. Which shall be beautiful for thee, if thou keep it in thy bowels, and it shall flow in thy lips:
19. That thy trust may be in the Lord, wherefore I have also shewn it to thee this day.
20. Behold I have described it to thee three manner of ways, in thoughts and knowledge:
21. That I might shew thee the certainty, and the words of truth, to answer out of these to them that sent thee.
