1A good name is more desirable than great riches, and loving favor is better than silver and gold.
2Hlanglen neh khodaeng khaw humcui uh. Amih boeih te khaw BOEIPA long ni a saii.
2The rich and the poor have this in common: The LORD is the maker of them all.
3Aka thaai long tah a thae a hmuh vaengah thuh la thuh uh. Tedae hlangyoe long tah a paan dongah lai a sah van.
3A prudent man sees danger and hides himself; but the simple pass on, and suffer for it.

16Whoever oppresses the poor for his own increase and whoever gives to the rich, both come to poverty.
