5 Evil men ¹do not understand justice, but those who seek the LORD ² understand it completely.

6 ³Better is a poor man who ⁴walks in his integrity than a rich man who is ⁵crooked in his ways.

7 The one who keeps the law is a son with understanding, but ⁶a companion of gluttons shames his father.

8 Whoever multiplies his wealth ⁷by interest and profit^a ⁸gathers it for him who is ⁹generous to the poor.

9 If one turns away his ear from hearing the law, even his ¹⁰prayer is an abomination.

10 Whoever misleads the upright into an evil way ¹¹will fall into his own pit, but the blameless ¹²will have a goodly inheritance.

11 A rich man is wise in his ¹³own eyes, but a poor man who has understanding ¹⁴will find him out.

12 When ¹⁵the righteous triumph, there is great glory, but when ¹⁶the wicked rise, people hide themselves.

13 Whoever ¹⁷conceals his transgressions will not prosper, but he who ¹⁸confesses and forsakes them will obtain mercy.

14 Blessed is the one who ¹⁹fears the LORD always, but whoever ²⁰hardens his heart will fall into calamity.

15 Like ²¹a roaring lion or ²²a charging bear is ²³a wicked ruler over a poor people.

16 A ruler who ²⁴lacks understanding is a cruel oppressor, but he who hates unjust gain will prolong his days.

17 If one is burdened with ²⁵the blood of another, he will be a fugitive until death;^b let no one help him.

18 ²⁶Whoever ²⁷walks in integrity will be delivered, but he who is crooked in his ways will suddenly fall.

19 ²⁸Whoever works his land will have plenty of bread, but he who follows worthless pursuits will have plenty of poverty.

20 A faithful man will abound with blessings, but whoever hastens to be rich ²⁹will not go unpunished.

21 To show ³⁰partiality is not good, but for ³¹a piece of bread a man will do wrong.

22 A ³²stingy man^c³³hastens after wealth and does not know that ³⁴poverty will come upon him.

23 Whoever ³⁵rebukes a man will afterward find more favor than ³⁶he who flatters with his tongue.

24 Whoever robs his father or his mother and says, "That is no transgression," is ³⁷a companion to a man who destroys.

25 A greedy man ³⁸stirs up strife, but the one who trusts in the LORD will ³⁹be enriched.
