⁶ Great wealth is in the house of the ^(A)righteous,
But trouble is in the income of the wicked.

^16 (A)Better is a little with ^[a]the fear of the Lord
Than great treasure, and turmoil with ^[b]the treasure.
^17 (B)Better is a portion of ^[c]vegetables where there is love,
Than a ^(C)fattened ox served with hatred.

²⁰ One who pays attention to the word will ^(A)find good,
And ^(B)blessed is one who trusts in the Lord.

¹¹ A ^(A)rich person’s wealth is his strong city,
And like a high wall in his own imagination.

^4 (A)Wealth adds many friends,
But a poor person is separated from his friend.

²¹ An inheritance gained in a hurry at the beginning
Will not be blessed in the end.

⁵ The plans of the ^(A)diligent certainly lead to advantage,
But everyone ^(B)who is in a hurry certainly comes to poverty.
⁶ The ^(C)acquisition of treasures by a lying tongue
Is a fleeting vapor, the ^[a]pursuit of ^(D)death.

⁴ The reward of humility and ^[a]the fear of the Lord
Are riches, honor, and life.

⁷ The ^(A)rich rules over the poor,
And the borrower becomes the lender’s slave.
