29 Do not choose to extol yourself in doing your work, and do not be unproductive during the time of distress.
30 He who works, and so abounds in all things, is better than he who boasts, and so lacks bread.
31 Son, preserve your soul in meekness, and give it honor according to its merit.
32 Who will justify one who sins in his soul? And who will honor one who dishonors his soul?
33 The poor man is glorified by his discipline and fear. And there is a man who is honored because of his substance.
