22 A good name is rather to be chosen than great riches,
And ^[a]loving favor rather than silver and gold.
² The rich and the poor meet together:
Jehovah is the maker of them all.

⁷ The rich ruleth over the poor;
And the borrower is servant to the lender.

⁹ He that hath a ^[a]bountiful eye shall be blessed;
For he giveth of his bread to the poor.

¹⁶ He that oppresseth the poor to increase his gain,
And he that giveth to the rich, shall come only to want.

²⁶ Be thou not one of them that strike hands,
Or of them that are sureties for debts.
²⁷ If thou hast not wherewith to pay,
Why should he take away thy bed from under thee?
