Proverbs 28:21-23

Easy-to-Read Version

²¹ It is wrong for a judge to support someone simply because he knows them. But some judges will change their decisions for the price of a loaf of bread.

²² Selfish people only want to get rich. They do not realize that they are very close to being poor.

²³ Correct someone, and later they will thank you. That is much better than just saying something to be nice.
