10
He that deceiveth the just in a wicked way, shall fall in his own destruction: and the upright shall possess his goods.
11
The rich man seemeth to himself wise: but the poor man that is prudent shall search him out.
12
In the joy of the just there is great glory: when the wicked reign, men are ruined.
13
He that hideth his sins, shall not prosper: but he that shall confess, and forsake them, shall obtain mercy.
14
Blessed is the man that is always fearful: but he that is hardened in mind shall fall into evil.
15
As a roaring lion, and a hungry bear, so is a wicked prince over the poor people.
16
A prince void of prudence shall oppress many by calumny: but he that hateth covetousness, shall prolong his days.
17
A man that doth violence to the blood of a person, if he flee even to the pit, no man will stay him.
18
He that walketh uprightly, shall be saved: he that is perverse in his ways, shall fall at once.
19
He that tilleth his ground, shall be filled with bread: but he that followeth idleness, shall be filled with poverty.
20
A faithful man shall be much praised: but he that maketh haste to be rich, shall not be innocent.
