5. A false witness shall not be unpunished. He who pours out lies shall not go free.
6. Many will entreat the favor of a ruler, and everyone is a friend to a man who gives gifts.
7. All the relatives of the poor shun him: how much more do his friends avoid him! He pursues them with pleas, but they are gone.
8. He who gets wisdom loves his own soul. He who keeps understanding shall find good.
