12:9 Better [is] the lightly esteemed who hath a servant, Than the self-honoured who lacketh bread.

12:10 The righteous knoweth the life of his beast, And the mercies of the wicked [are] cruel.

12:12 The wicked hath desired the net of evil doers, And the root of the righteous giveth.

12:13 In transgression of the lips [is] the snare of the wicked, And the righteous goeth out from distress.
