Hear this all people and give ear all in the world that dwell. verse 2 Sons both of low and higher men, the rich the poor as well. verse 3 I with my mouth variety of wisdom will impart: ⟨p. 123⟩Of understanding much shall be the musing of my heart.

verse 4 Unto a speech proverbial I will incline mine ear: I will upon the harp withal my doctrine dark declare. verse 5 Why should I be at all afraid in days that evil be? When that my heels iniquity about shall compass me.
(2) verse 6 Those men that make their great estates their stay to trust unto; Who in the plenty of their wealth themselves do boast also. verse 7 There's not a man of them that can by any means redeem His brother, nor to God can give a ransom meet for him.
