16. He that oppresseth the dal (poor) in order to increase, and he that giveth to the oisher, shall surely come to machsor (poverty, want).
17. Bow down thine ozen, and hear the devarim of chachamim, and apply thine lev (mind, heart) unto my da'as.
18. For it is a pleasant thing if thou be shomer over them within thee; they shall therewith abide ready upon thy sfatayim (lips).
19. That thy trust may be in Hashem, I have made thee know this yom, even thee!
