In context

4 The rewarde of humilitie, and the feare of God is riches, and glory, and life.

5 Thornes and snares are in the way of the frowarde: but he that regardeth his soule, will depart farre from them.

6 Teache a childe in the trade of his way, and when he is olde, he shall not depart from it.

7 The rich ruleth the poore, and the borower is seruant to the man that lendeth.

8 He that soweth iniquitie, shall reape affliction, and the rodde of his anger shall faile.

9 He that hath a good eye, he shalbe blessed: for he giueth of his bread vnto the poore.

10 Cast out the scorner, and strife shall go out: so contention and reproche shall cease.
