Proverbs 22:16-18

Jubilee Bible 2000

¹⁶ ¶ He that oppresses the poor to increase his riches and who gives to the rich shall surely come to want.

¹⁷ ¶ Bow down thine ear and hear the words of the wise, and apply thine heart unto my wisdom.

¹⁸ For it is a delightful thing if thou keep them within thee; they shall be ordered together in thy lips.
