^2 [a](A)Ill-gotten gains do not benefit,

But He ^(C)will ^[c]reject the craving of the wicked.
⁴ Poor is one who works with ^[d]a lazy hand,
But the ^(D)hand of the diligent makes rich.

¹⁵ The ^(A)rich person’s wealth is his ^[a]fortress,
The ^(B)ruin of the poor is their poverty.

²² It is the ^(A)blessing of the Lord that makes rich,
And He adds no sorrow to it.

^4 (A)Riches do not benefit on the day of wrath,
But ^(B)righteousness rescues from death.
