10 Son, you should not be involved in many matters. And if you become rich, you will not be free from transgression. For if you pursue, you will not apprehend; and if you run ahead, you will not escape.
11 There is an impious man who labors and hurries and grieves, but all the more will he be without abundance.
12 There is a debilitated man in need of recovery, who is lacking in strength and abundant in poverty.
13 Yet the eye of God has looked with favor upon him for his benefit, and he has lifted him up from his humiliation, and he has exalted his head. And many have wondered at him, and they have honored God.
14 Good things and misfortune, life and death, poverty and wealth, are from God.
