Proverbs 28:21-28

Showing partiality is never good,
yet some will do wrong for a mere piece of bread.

Greedy people try to get rich quick
but don’t realize they’re headed for poverty.

In the end, people appreciate honest criticism
far more than flattery.

Anyone who steals from his father and mother
and says, “What’s wrong with that?”
is no better than a murderer.

Greed causes fighting;
trusting the Lord leads to prosperity.

Those who trust their own insight are foolish,
but anyone who walks in wisdom is safe.

Whoever gives to the poor will lack nothing,
but those who close their eyes to poverty will be cursed.

When the wicked take charge, people go into hiding.
When the wicked meet disaster, the godly flourish.
