1. Hear this, all peoples!Give ear, all inhabitants of the world,
2. both low and high,rich and poor together!
3. My mouth shall speak wisdom;the meditation of my heart shall be understanding.
4. I will incline my ear to a proverb;I will solve my riddle to the music of the lyre.
5. Why should I fear in times of trouble,when the iniquity of those who cheat me surrounds me,
6. those who trust in their wealthand boast of the abundance of their riches?
