1. My whole being takes pleasurein three things,and these are beautiful to the Lordand to human beings:harmony among brothers and sisters,friendship among neighbors,and a wife and husbandwho adapt to each other.
2. My whole being despisesthree types of persons,and I am angered by the way they live:an arrogant poor person,a rich liar,an old adulterer who never learns.
3. If you have gathered nothingin your youth,how then will you find anythingin your old age?
