Proverbs 22
16 - Whoever oppresses the poor for his own increase and whoever gives to the rich, both come to poverty.
Select
1 - A good name is more desirable than great riches, and loving favor is better than silver and gold.
2 - The rich and the poor have this in common: Yahweh is the maker of them all.
3 - A prudent man sees danger, and hides himself; but the simple pass on, and suffer for it.
4 - The result of humility and the fear of Yahweh is wealth, honor, and life.
5 - Thorns and snares are in the path of the wicked: whoever guards his soul stays from them.
6 - Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it.
7 - The rich rule over the poor. The borrower is servant to the lender.
8 - He who sows wickedness reaps trouble, and the rod of his fury will be destroyed.
9 - He who has a generous eye will be blessed; for he shares his food with the poor.
10 - Drive out the mocker, and strife will go out; yes, quarrels and insults will stop.
11 - He who loves purity of heart and speaks gracefully is the king’s friend.
12 - The eyes of Yahweh watch over knowledge; but he frustrates the words of the unfaithful.
13 - The sluggard says, “There is a lion outside! I will be killed in the streets!”
14 - The mouth of an adulteress is a deep pit: he who is under Yahweh’s wrath will fall into it.
15 - Folly is bound up in the heart of a child: the rod of discipline drives it far from him.
16 - Whoever oppresses the poor for his own increase and whoever gives to the rich, both come to poverty.
17 - Turn your ear, and listen to the words of the wise. Apply your heart to my teaching.
18 - For it is a pleasant thing if you keep them within you, if all of them are ready on your lips.
19 - That your trust may be in Yahweh, I teach you today, even you.
20 - Haven’t I written to you thirty excellent things of counsel and knowledge,
21 - To teach you truth, reliable words, to give sound answers to the ones who sent you?
22 - Don’t exploit the poor, because he is poor; and don’t crush the needy in court;
23 - for Yahweh will plead their case, and plunder the life of those who plunder them.
24 - Don’t befriend a hot-tempered man, and don’t associate with one who harbors anger:
25 - lest you learn his ways, and ensnare your soul.
26 - Don’t you be one of those who strike hands, of those who are collateral for debts.
27 - If you don’t have means to pay, why should he take away your bed from under you?
28 - Don’t move the ancient boundary stone, which your fathers have set up.
29 - Do you see a man skilled in his work? He will serve kings. He won’t serve obscure men.
Proverbs 22:16
16 / 29
Whoever oppresses the poor for his own increase and whoever gives to the rich, both come to poverty.
