“The wicked flee when no man pursueth: But the righteous are bold as a lion. Evil men understand not judgment: But they that seek the LORD understand all things.
Better is the poor that walketh in his uprightness, than he that is perverse in his ways, though he be rich.
He that by usury and unjust gain increaseth his substance, He shall gather it for him that will pity the poor. Whoso walketh uprightly shall be saved: But he that is perverse in his ways shall fall at once. He that tilleth his land shall have plenty of bread: But he that followeth after vain persons shall have poverty enough.
To have respect of persons is not good: For for a piece of bread that man will transgress. He that hasteth to be rich hath an evil eye, And considereth not that poverty shall come upon him.”
Proverbs 28:1, 5-6 18-19, 21-22 KJV
