3 A needy man who oppresses the poor Is like a driving rain which leaves no crops.
4 Those who forsake the law praise the wicked; But those who keep the law contend with them.
5 Evil men don`t understand justice; But those who seek Yahweh understand it fully.
6 Better is the poor who walks in his integrity, Than he who is perverse in his ways, and he is rich.
7 Whoever keeps the law is a wise son; But he who is a companion of gluttons shames his father.
8 He who increases his wealth by excessive interest Gathers it for one who has pity on the poor.
9 He who turns away his ear from hearing the law, Even his prayer is an abomination.
