Proverbs 28:7


Proverbs 28:6 Proverbs 28:7 (KJV) Proverbs 28:8
Better [is] the poor that walketh in his uprightness, than [he that is] perverse [in his] ways, though he [be] rich.
Whoso keepeth the law [is] a wise son: but he that is a companion of riotous [men] shameth his father.
He that by usury and unjust gain increaseth his substance, he shall gather it for him that will pity the poor.
