19 (A)He that tilleth his land, shall be satisfied with bread, but he that followeth the idle, shall be filled with poverty.
20 A faithful man shall abound in blessings, and (B)he that maketh haste to be rich, shall not be innocent.
21 To have respect of persons is not good: for that man will transgress for a piece of [a]bread.
