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

^6 (A)Many will seek the favor of a ^[a]generous person,
And every person is a friend to ^(B)him who gives gifts.
⁷ All the brothers of a poor person hate him;
How much more do his ^(C)friends abandon him!
He ^(D)pursues them with words, but they are ^[b]gone.

² The rich and the poor ^[a]have a common bond,
The Lord is the ^(A)Maker of them all.

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