Proverbs 22:3-8 English Standard Version
3 (A)The prudent sees danger and hides himself,
but the simple go on and suffer for it.
4 The reward for humility and fear of the Lord
is (B)riches and honor and life.[a]
5 (C)Thorns and snares are in the way of the crooked;
whoever (D)guards his soul will keep far from them.
6 (E)Train up a child in the way he should go;
even when he is old he will not depart from it.
7 (F)The rich rules over the poor,
and the borrower is the slave of the lender.
8 Whoever (G)sows injustice will reap calamity,
and (H)the rod of his fury will fail.
