⁶ In the house of the righteous there is much treasure,
    but the income of the wicked brings trouble.

¹⁶ Better is little with the fear of Yahweh
    than great treasure and trouble with it.^[a]
17 Better is a dinner of vegetables when^[b] love is there
    than a fattened ox and hatred with it.^[c]

²⁰ He who is attentive to a matter will find goodness,
    and he who trusts in Yahweh, his own happiness.

¹¹ The wealth of the rich is his strong city,^[a]
    and like a wall, it is high in his imagination.

⁴ Wealth adds many friends,
    but the poor will be left by his friends.

²¹ An inheritance acquired hastily at the beginning^[a]
    will not be blessed at its end.

⁵ The plans of the diligent only lead to abundance,
    but all who are hasty, only to want.
⁶ He who makes treasure by a lying tongue
    is a fleeting vapor and seeker^[a] of death.

⁴ The reward of humility is the fear of Yahweh—
    wealth and honor and life.

⁷ The rich will rule over the poor,
    and the borrower is a slave of the lender.^[a]

¹⁶ He who oppresses the poor in order to enrich himself,
    or gives to the rich, will come to poverty.^[a]
