⁶ The godliness of good people rescues them;
    the ambition of treacherous people traps them.

¹² Thieves are jealous of each other’s loot,
    but the godly are well rooted and bear their own fruit.

²¹ An inheritance obtained too early in life
    is not a blessing in the end.

⁵ Good planning and hard work lead to prosperity,
    but hasty shortcuts lead to poverty.

²⁰ The wise have wealth and luxury,
    but fools spend whatever they get.
