To show partiality is not good,
yet a man will do wrong for a piece of bread.
To show partiality is not good,
yet a man will do wrong for a piece of bread.
Proverbs 28:18–24
Whoever walks blamelessly is kept safe;
but one with perverse ways will fall suddenly.
One who works his land will have an abundance of food;
but one who chases fantasies will have his fill of poverty.
A faithful man is rich with blessings;
but one who is eager to be rich will not go unpunished.
To show partiality is not good,
yet a man will do wrong for a piece of bread.
A stingy man hurries after riches,
and doesn’t know that poverty waits for him.
One who rebukes a man will afterward find more favor
than one who flatters with the tongue.
Whoever robs his father or his mother and says, “It’s not wrong,”
is a partner with a destroyer.
