¹⁵ The wealth of the rich is their powerful fortress;
    the poverty of the poor reduces them to rubble.

²⁴ One shares liberally and yet gains even more,
    while another hoards more than is right and still has need.
²⁵ A giving person will receive much in return,
    and someone who gives water will also receive the water he needs.

²³ Though the fields of the poor yield a bumper crop
    in a land without justice, it is stolen out from under them.

²⁵ The Eternal splinters the house of the haughty,
    but He secures the property of widows.
