Words Of Wisdom lyrics with English Translations
A good name is rather to be chosen
Than great riches
And loving favour
Rather than silver and gold
The rich and the poor meet together Jah is the maker of them all
A prudent man forseeth the evil And hideth himself But the simple pass on And are punished
Rob not the poor Because he is poor Neither oppress the afflicted in the gate For Jah will plead their cause And spoil the soul of those that spoiled them
Make no friendship with an angry man And with a furious man thou shalt not go Lest thou learn his ways And get a snare to thy soul
Be not thou one of them that strike hands Or of them that are sureties for debts If thou hast nothing to pay Why should he take away thy bed from under thee?
Rob not the poor Because he is poor Neither oppress the afflicted in the gate For Jah will plead their cause And spoil the soul of those that spoiled them
He that soweth iniquity shall reap vanity And the rod of his anger shall fail He that hath a bountiful eye shall be blessed For he giveth of his bread to the poor
Cast out the scorner And contention shall go out Yeah! Strife and reproach shall cease
The rich and the poor meet together Jah is the maker of them all
A prudent man forseeth the evil And hideth himself But the simple pass on And are punished
Rob not the poor Because he is poor Neither oppress the afflicted in the gate For Jah will plead their cause And spoil the soul of those that spoiled them
Make no friendship with an angry man And with a furious man thou shalt not go Lest thou learn his ways And get a snare to thy soul
Be not thou one of them that strike hands Or of them that are sureties for debts If thou hast nothing to pay Why should he take away thy bed from under thee?
Rob not the poor Because he is poor Neither oppress the afflicted in the gate For Jah will plead their cause And spoil the soul of those that spoiled them
He that soweth iniquity shall reap vanity And the rod of his anger shall fail He that hath a bountiful eye shall be blessed For he giveth of his bread to the poor
Cast out the scorner And contention shall go out Yeah! Strife and reproach shall cease
