6. Better is the poor that walketh in his integrity, than he that is perverse in his ways, though he be rich.
7. Whoso keepeth the law is a wise son: but he that is a companion of gluttonous men shameth his father.
8. He that augmenteth his substance by usury and increase, gathereth it for him that hath pity on the poor.
9. He that turneth away his ear from hearing the law, even his prayer is an abomination.
10. Whoso causeth the upright to go astray in an evil way, he shall fall himself into his own pit: but the perfect shall inherit good.
11. The rich man is wise in his own conceit; but the poor that hath understanding searcheth him out.
