6 Mieux vaut le pauvre qui marche dans son intégrité, Que celui qui a des voies tortueuses et qui est riche.
7 Celui qui observe la loi est un fils intelligent, Mais celui qui fréquente les débauchés fait honte à son père.

9 Si quelqu’un détourne l’oreille pour ne pas écouter la loi, Sa prière même est une abomination.
