3 A poore man, if he oppresse the poore, is like a raging raine, that leaueth no foode.
4 They that forsake the Law, prayse the wicked: but they that keepe the Law, set themselues against them.
5 Wicked men vnderstand not iudgemnt: but they that seeke the Lord vnderstand all things.
6 Better is the poore that walketh in his vprightnesse, then hee that peruerteth his wayes, though he be riche.
7 He that keepeth the Law, is a childe of vnderstanding: but hee that feedeth the gluttons, shameth his father.
8 He that increaseth his riches by vsurie and interest, gathereth them for him that will be mercifull vnto the poore.
