¹ The wicked flee when no man pursueth: But the righteous are bold as a lion

² For the transgression of a land many are the princes thereof: But by men of understanding and knowledge the state thereof shall be prolonged

³ A needy man that oppresseth the poor is like a sweeping rain which leaveth no food

⁴ They that forsake the law praise the wicked: But such as keep the law contend with them

⁵ Evil men understand not judgement: But they that seek the LORD understand all things

⁶ Better is the poor that walketh in his integrity, than he that is perverse in his ways, though he be rich

⁷ Whoso keepeth the law is a wise son: But he that is a companion of gluttonous men shameth his father

⁸ He that augmenteth his substance by usury and increase, gathereth it for him that hath pity on the poor

⁹ He that turneth away his ear from hearing the law, even his prayer is an abomination

¹⁰ Whoso causeth the upright to go astray in an evil way, he shall fall himself into his own pit: But the perfect shall inherit good

¹¹ The rich man is wise in his own conceit; but the poor that hath understanding searcheth him out

¹² When the righteous triumph, there is great glory: But when the wicked rise, men hide themselves

¹³ He that covereth his transgressions shall not prosper: But whoso confesseth and forsaketh them shall obtain mercy

¹⁴ Happy is the man that feareth alway: But he that hardeneth his heart shall fall into mischief

¹⁵ As a roaring lion, and a ranging bear; so is a wicked ruler over a poor people

¹⁶ The prince that lacketh understanding is also a great oppressor: but he that hateth covetousness shall prolong his days

¹⁷ A man that is laden with the blood of any person shall flee unto the pit; Let no man stay him

¹⁸ Whoso walketh uprightly shall be delivered: But he that is perverse in his ways shall fall at once

¹⁹ He that tilleth his land shall have plenty of bread: But he that followeth after vain persons shall have poverty enough

²⁰ A faithful man shall abound with blessings: But he that maketh haste to be rich shall not be unpunished

²¹ To have respect of persons is not good: Neither that a man should transgress for a piece of bread

²² He that hath an evil eye hasteth after riches, and knoweth not that want shall come upon him

²³ He that rebuketh a man shall afterward find more favour than he that flattereth with the tongue

²⁴ Whoso robbeth his father or his mother, and saith, It is no transgression; the same is the companion of a destroyer

²⁵ He that is of a greedy spirit stirreth up strife: But he that putteth his trust in the LORD shall be made fat

²⁶ He that trusteth in his own heart is a fool: But whoso walketh wisely, he shall be delivered

²⁷ He that giveth unto the poor shall not lack: But he that hideth his eyes shall have many a curse

²⁸ When the wicked rise, men hide themselves: But when they perish, the righteous increase.
