The final Jupiterian wheel sets poverty relief within a biblical ascent: the needy rise to sit with princes. Treasure and its guarding spirits also figure in the notice. [1]

The last Jupiter pentacle joins relief from poverty with discovering treasure and driving away its guarding spirits. Like the sixth, its notice calls for devotional attention and repetition of the surrounding verse. [1]
Eight character-tipped spokes radiate within a surrounding verse. The editor identifies Jupiterian characters and Psalm 113:7. [1]
Psalm 113:7 supplies the movement that the notice promises: the poor are raised from the mire and the needy from the dunghill to sit with princes. Its language turns the pursuit of wealth into an ascent of social position. Jupiterian characters fill the wheel, while the circumference states that ascent in recognisable biblical terms. [1]
