The mouth of strange women [is] a deep pit: he that is abhorred of the LORD shall fall therein.
Foolishness [is] bound in the heart of a child; [but] the rod of correction shall drive it far from him.
He that oppresseth the poor to increase his [riches, and] he that giveth to the rich, [shall] surely [come] to want.
Bow down thine ear, and hear the words of the wise, and apply thine heart unto my knowledge.
For [it is] a pleasant thing if thou keep them within thee; they shall withal be fitted in thy lips.
That thy trust may be in the LORD, I have made known to thee this day, even to thee.
Have not I written to thee excellent things in counsels and knowledge,
That I might make thee know the certainty of the words of truth; that thou mightest answer the words of truth to them that send unto thee?
Rob not the poor, because he [is] poor: neither oppress the afflicted in the gate:
For the LORD will plead their cause, and spoil the soul of those that spoiled them.
