⁵ It is well with the man who deals graciously and lends.
    He will maintain his cause in judgment.

    His righteousness endures forever.
    His horn will be exalted with honor.

¹⁶ A gracious woman obtains honor,
    but violent men obtain riches.

²⁴ There is one who scatters, and increases yet more.
    There is one who withholds more than is appropriate, but gains poverty.
²⁵ The liberal soul shall be made fat.
    He who waters shall be watered also himself.

⁹ He who has a generous eye will be blessed;
    for he shares his food with the poor.
