6
Righteousness guardeth him that is upright in the way; But wickedness overthroweth the sinner.
7
There is that maketh himself rich, yet hath nothing: There is that maketh himself poor, yet hath great wealth.
8
The ransom of a man's life is his riches; But the poor heareth no threatening.
9
The light of the righteous rejoiceth; But the lamp of the wicked shall be put out.
10
By pride cometh only contention; But with the well-advised is wisdom.
11
Wealth gotten by vanity shall be diminished; But he that gathereth by labor shall have increase.
12
Hope deferred maketh the heart sick; But when the desire cometh, it is a tree of life.
13
Whoso despiseth the word bringeth destruction on himself; But he that feareth the commandment shall be rewarded.
14
The law of the wise is a fountain of life, That one may depart from the snares of death.
15
Good understanding giveth favor; But the way of the transgressor is hard.
16
Every prudent man worketh with knowledge; But a fool flaunteth [his] folly.
