In context
3The shrewd man sees trouble and hides himself; the simple walk on and pay for it. 4The reward of humility and the fear of Yahweh is riches and honor and life. 5Thorns and snares lie on the way of the crooked; whoever guards his life stays far from them. 6Train a boy in the way he should go, and even when he is old he will not turn from it. 7The rich rules over the poor, and the borrower is slave to the lender.
