Proverbs 14:31-33
International Standard Version
31 Whoever oppresses the poor defies their Creator,
but whoever is kind to the needy honors them.
32 The wicked person is thrown down by his own wrongdoing,
but the righteous person has a place of safety in death.[a]
33 Wisdom is at rest in the mind of the discerning—
even fools know this.[b]
