7 The wicked are overthrown, and are no more, But the house of the righteous shall stand.
8 A man shall be commended according to his wisdom, But he who has a warped mind shall be despised.
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.
