Mishle 13:6-8

Orthodox Jewish Bible

⁶ Tzedakah is guard over him whose derech is blameless, but wickedness overthroweth the chattat (sinner).

⁷ There is one who maketh himself out to be rich, yet hath nothing; there is one that maketh himself out to be poor, yet hath hon rav (great wealth).

⁸ The riches of an ish is kofer (ransom) for his nefesh (life), but the poor heareth no threat.
