31. He who oppresses the poor reproaches his Maker,But he who honors Him has mercy on the needy.
32. The wicked is banished in his wickedness,But the righteous has a refuge in his death.
33. Wisdom rests in the heart of him who has understanding,But what is in the heart of fools is made known.
34. Righteousness exalts a nation,But sin is a reproach to any people.
35. The king’s favor is toward a wise servant,But his wrath is against him who causes shame.
