31. He that oppresses the poor reproaches his Maker: but he that honors him has mercy on the poor.
32. The wicked is driven away in his wickedness: but the righteous has hope in his death.
33. Wisdom rests in the heart of him that has understanding: but that which is in the midst of fools is made known.
34. Righteousness exalts a nation: but sin is a reproach to any people.
