One who rebukes a man will afterward find more favor
than one who flatters with the tongue.
One who rebukes a man will afterward find more favor
than one who flatters with the tongue.
Proverbs 28:20–26
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.
One who is greedy stirs up strife;
but one who trusts in the LORD will prosper.
One who trusts in himself is a fool;
but one who walks in wisdom is kept safe.
