Proverbs 28:6-8

New King James Version

⁶Better is the poor who walks in his integrity
Than one perverse in his ways, though he be rich.

⁷Whoever keeps the law is a discerning son,
But a companion of gluttons shames his father.

⁸One who increases his possessions by usury and extortion
Gathers it for him who will pity the poor.

Proverbs 28:6-8

amasses it for another,^(D) who will be kind to the poor.^(E)
