8 La redención de la vida del hombre son sus riquezas: pero el pobre no oye censuras.

9 La luz de los justos se alegrará: mas apagaráse la lámpara de los impíos.

11 Disminuiránse las riquezas de vanidad: empero multiplicará el que allega con su mano.

12 La esperanza que se prolonga, es tormento del corazón: mas árbol de vida es el deseo cumplido.
