⁶ In the house of the righteous there is much treasure,
But in the revenue of the wicked is trouble.

^16 (A)Better is a little with the fear of the Lord,
Than great treasure with trouble.
^17 (B)Better is a dinner of ^[a]herbs where love is,
Than a fatted calf with hatred.

²⁰ He who heeds the word wisely will find good,
And whoever ^(A)trusts in the Lord, happy is he.

^4 (A)Wealth makes many friends,
But the poor is separated from his friend.

^21 (A)An inheritance gained hastily at the beginning
^(B)Will not be blessed at the end.

^5 (A)The plans of the diligent lead surely to plenty,
But those of everyone who is hasty, surely to poverty.

^6 (B)Getting treasures by a lying tongue
^[a]Is the fleeting fantasy of those who seek death.

⁴ By humility and the fear of the Lord
Are riches and honor and life.

⁷ The ^(A)rich rules over the poor,
And the borrower is servant to the lender.

¹⁶ He who oppresses the poor to increase his riches,
And he who gives to the rich, will surely come to poverty.
