Proverbs 22:1-7

Listen to Proverbs 22:1-7
1 A name is chosen rather than much wealth, Than silver and than gold -- good grace.
2 Rich and poor have met together, The Maker of them all [is] Jehovah.
3 The prudent hath seen the evil, and is hidden, And the simple have passed on, and are punished.
4 The end of humility [is] the fear of Jehovah, Riches, and honour, and life.
5 Thorns -- snares [are] in the way of the perverse, Whoso is keeping his soul is far from them.
6 Give instruction to a youth about his way, Even when he is old he turneth not from it.
7 The rich over the poor ruleth, And a servant [is] the borrower to the lender.
