8 The words of a tale-bearer 'are' as self-inflicted wounds, And they have gone down 'to' the inner parts of the heart.
9 He also that is remiss in his work, A brother he 'is' to a destroyer.
10 A tower of strength 'is' the name of Jehovah, Into it the righteous runneth, and is set on high.
11 The wealth of the rich 'is' the city of his strength, And as a wall set on high in his own imagination.
12 Before destruction the heart of man is high, And before honour 'is' humility.
