⁷ Some who are poor pretend to be rich;
    others who are rich pretend to be poor.

⁸ The rich can pay a ransom for their lives,
    but the poor won’t even get threatened.

¹¹ Wealth from get-rich-quick schemes quickly disappears;
    wealth from hard work grows over time.

²² Good people leave an inheritance to their grandchildren,
    but the sinner’s wealth passes to the godly.
