9 Better is he who is lightly esteemed, and has a servant, Than he who honors himself, and lacks bread.
10 A righteous man regards the life of his animal, But the tender mercies of the wicked are cruel.
11 He who tills his land shall have plenty of bread, But he who chases fantasies is void of understanding.
12 The wicked desires the plunder of evil men, But the root of the righteous flourishes.
13 An evil man is trapped by sinfulness of lips, But the righteous shall come out of trouble.
