Proverbs 28:6-8
Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

6 Better is a poor man who walks in his integrity
    than a rich man who is perverse in his ways.
7 He who keeps the law is a wise son,
    but a companion of gluttons shames his father.
8 He who augments his wealth by interest and increase
    gathers it for him who is kind to the poor.
