Whoever multiplies his wealth (A)by interest and profit[a]
    (B)gathers it for him who is (C)generous to the poor.
If one turns away his ear from hearing the law,
    even his (D)prayer is an abomination.
10 Whoever misleads the upright into an evil way
    (E)will fall into his own pit,
    but the blameless (F)will have a goodly inheritance.
