8 The ransom of a man’s life is his riches,
But the poor does not hear rebuke.
9 The light of the righteous rejoices,
aBut the lamp of the wicked will be put out. 
10 By pride comes nothing but astrife,
But with the well-advised is wisdom. 
11 aWealth gained by dishonesty will be diminished,
But he who gathers by labor will increase. 
12 Hope deferred makes the heart sick,
But awhen the desire comes, it is a tree of life. 
13 He who adespises the word will be destroyed,
But he who fears the commandment will be rewarded. 
14 aThe law of the wise is a fountain of life,
To turn one away from bthe snares of death.
