1
A
good reputation
is rather to be chosen than great riches
and good grace rather than silver and gold.
2
The rich and poor meet together; the LORD
is the maker of them all.
3
A prudent
man foresees the evil and hides himself, but the simple pass on and receive hurt.
4
Riches and honour and life
are the remuneration of humility and of the fear of the LORD.
5
Thorns
and snares
are in the way of the perverse; he that keeps his soul shall be far from them.
6
Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old, he will not depart from it.
7
The rich rules over the poor, and the borrower
is slave to the lender.
8
He that sows iniquity shall reap iniquity, and the rod of his anger shall fail.
9
He that has a merciful eye shall be blessed, for he gives of his bread to the destitute.
10
Cast out the scorner, and contention shall go out; strife and reproach shall cease.
