Proverbs 22:7-9
New American Standard Bible
7 The (A)rich rules over the poor,
And the borrower becomes the lender’s slave.
8 One who (B)sows injustice will reap disaster,
And the (C)rod of his fury will perish.
9 One who [a]is (D)generous will be blessed,
Because he (E)gives some of his food to the poor.
