1. إِذا المَرءُ أَثرى ثُم ضَنَّ بِرِفده

    فَدَعه صَريعَ اللُّؤم تَحتَ القَوائِم

    If a man grows wealthy, then withholds his aid,

    then leave him felled by baseness beneath the feet.

  2. وَبَعض اِنتِقام المَرء يُزري بِعرضِه

    وَإِن لَم يَقَع إِلّا بِأَهل الجَرائِم

    And some of a man's vengeance tarnishes his honor,

    even if it falls on none but those guilty of crimes.
