⁴ They that forsake the law praise the wicked;
But such as keep the law contend with them.

⁷ Whoso keepeth the law is a wise son;
But he that is a companion of gluttons shameth his father.

⁹ He that turneth away his ear from hearing the law,
Even his prayer is an abomination.

¹⁸ Where there is no vision, the people cast off restraint;
But he that keepeth the law, happy is he.
