{7:2} Withdraw from the iniquitous, and evil will withdraw from you.
{7:3} Son, do not sow evil in the furrows of injustice, and you will not reap them sevenfold.
{7:4} Do not seek a role of leadership from the Lord, and do not seek a seat of honor from the king.
{7:5} You should not justify yourself before God, for he is the Knower of hearts. And by no means should you wish to seem wise before the king.
{7:6} Do not seek to become a judge, unless you have sufficient strength to shatter iniquities. Otherwise, you might fear the face of the powerful, and so establish a scandal within your integrity.
{7:7} You should not sin against the multitude of a city, nor should you cast yourself against the people.
