Proverbs 28:22-24
Amplified Bible
22
He who has an evil and envious eye hurries to be rich
And does not know that poverty will come upon him.(A)
23
He who [appropriately] reprimands a [wise] man will afterward find more favor
Than he who flatters with the tongue.
24
He who robs his father or his mother
And says, “This is no sin,”
Is [not only a thief but also] the companion of a man who destroys.
Proverbs 28:22-24
New International Version
22 The stingy are eager to get rich
and are unaware that poverty awaits them.(A)
23 Whoever rebukes a person will in the end gain favor
rather than one who has a flattering tongue.(B)
