8. For a man who is of two minds is inconstant in all his ways.
9. Now a humble brother should glory in his exaltation,
10. and a rich one, in his humiliation, for he will pass away like the flower of the grass.
11. For the sun has risen with a scorching heat, and has dried the grass, and its flower has fallen off, and the appearance of its beauty has perished. So also will the rich one wither away, according to his paths.
12. Blessed is the man who suffers temptation. For when he has been proven, he shall receive the crown of life which God has promised to those who love him.
