And you neglected all my counsel
And did not want my reproof;

There is one who scatters, and yet increases all the more,
And there is one who withholds what is justly due, and yet it results only in want.

Then your poverty will come as a robber
And your want like an armed man.

A man with an evil eye hastens after wealth
And does not know that want will come upon him.

He who gives to the poor will never want,
But he who shuts his eyes will have many curses.

That I not be full and deny You and say, “Who is the Lord?”
Or that I not be in want and steal,
And profane the name of my God.
