If you teach children the right way to live, they will not forget it when they are older.

You should be humble. You should respect and obey the LORD. Then you will receive riches, honour and a long life.

It is better to receive honour from people than to be very rich. If people respect you, that is better than silver or gold.

—2— Do not become a friend of angry people. Keep away from them.

If you are kind to poor people and you share your food with them, God will bless you.

A careful person can see danger and he will hide himself. But a silly person never stops, and he walks into trouble.

Rich people have authority over poor people. People who borrow money have to serve those who lend it to them.

This is true about rich people and poor people: The LORD created them all.

—1— Do not cheat poor people just because they are poor. Do not attack helpless people in court. The LORD will speak on their behalf. He will punish anyone who cheats them.
