6 (A)Better is the poor who walks in his integrityThan he who is crooked—[a]double dealing—though he be rich.
8 He who increases his wealth by (A)interest and usuryGathers it (B)for him who is gracious to the lowly.
11 The rich man is (A)wise in his own eyes,But the lowly who understands [a]searches him.
16 A (A)leader who lacks discernment abounds in oppressions,But he who hates greedy gain will prolong his days.
20 A (A)faithful man will abound with blessings,But he who (B)makes haste to be rich will not go unpunished.
22 A man with an (A)evil eye (B)hurries after wealthAnd does not know that want will come upon him.
27 He who (A)gives to the poor will never want,But he who [a]shuts his eyes will have many curses.
