1  ^aBetter is a poor person who ^bwalks in his integrity

than one who is crooked in speech and is a fool.

3  When a man’s folly ^dbrings his way to ruin,

his heart ^erages against the Lord.

10  ⁿIt is not fitting for a fool to live in luxury,

much less for ^oa slave to rule over princes.

29  Condemnation is ready for ^rscoffers,

and ^xbeating for the backs of fools.
