And he sins who hastens with his feet.

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

^8 (B)Do not go hastily to ^[a]court;
For what will you do in the end,
When your neighbor has put you to shame?

²⁰ A faithful man will abound with blessings,
^(A)But he who hastens to be rich will not go unpunished.

²² A man with an evil eye hastens after riches,
And does not consider that ^(A)poverty will come upon him.

²⁰ Do you see a man hasty in his words?
^(A)There is more hope for a fool than for him.
