Proverbs 22:1-5 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

1. A good name is preferable to great riches. Favour is better than silver and gold.

2. The rich and the poor meet together – יהוה is the Maker of them all.

3. A clever one foresees evil and hides himself, But the simple go on and are punished.

4. The reward of humility is the fear of יהוה, Riches, and esteem and life.

5. Thorns, snares are in the way of the perverse; He who guards his life keeps far away from them.
