He that oppresseth the poor reproacheth his Maker; But he that hath mercy on the needy honoreth him.
32
The wicked is thrust down in his evil-doing; But the righteous hath a refuge in his death.
33
Wisdom resteth in the heart of him that hath understanding; Butthat which isin the inward part of fools is made known.
34
Righteousness exalteth a nation; But sin is a reproach to any people.
35
