So shall come in, as a highwayman, thy poverty, and, thy want, as one armed with a shield.

There is who scattereth, and increaseth yet more, and who withholdeth of what is due, only to come to want.

Much food, is in the fallow ground of the poor, but there is that is swept away, for want of justice.

The righteous, eateth to satisfy his appetite, but, the belly of the lawless, shall want.

By all labour, there will be abundance, but, the talk of the lips, tendeth only to want.

The plans of the diligent, tend only to abundance, but, of every one that is urgent, only to want.

He that oppresseth the poor, to make increase for himself, giving to the rich, shall surely come to want.

A man, hasting to be rich, hath an evil eye, and knoweth not when want may overtake him.

One who giveth to the poor, shall have no want, but, he that hideth his eyes, shall receive many a curse.
