A name is chosen rather than much wealth, || Than silver and than gold—good grace.

Do not show yourself friendly with an angry man, || And do not go in with a man of fury

The good of eye—he is blessed, || For he has given of his bread to the poor.

The prudent has seen the evil, and is hidden, || And the simple have passed on, and are punished.

The rich rules over the poor, || And a servant [is] the borrower to the lender.

Rich and poor have met together, || YHWH [is] the Maker of them all.

Do not rob the poor because he [is] poor, || And do not bruise the afflicted in the gate. For YHWH pleads their cause, || And has spoiled the soul of their spoilers.
