Proverbs 21:26-28
American Standard Version

26 There is that coveteth greedily all the day long;
But the righteous giveth and withholdeth not.
27 The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination;
How much more, when he bringeth it [a]with a wicked mind!
28 A false witness shall perish;
But the man that heareth shall speak so as to endure.
