Proverbs
Chapters 28:6-12
New International Version Anglicized
6Better the poor whose way of life is blamelessthan the rich whose ways are perverse.
7A discerning son heeds instruction,but a companion of gluttons disgraces his father.
8Whoever increases wealth by taking interest or profit from the pooramasses it for another, who will be kind to the poor.
9If anyone turns a deaf ear to my instruction,even their prayers are detestable.
10Whoever leads the upright along an evil pathwill fall into their own trap,but the blameless will receive a good inheritance.
11The rich are wise in their own eyes;one who is poor and discerning sees how deluded they are.
12When the righteous triumph, there is great elation;but when the wicked rise to power, people go into hiding.
