Proverbs 28:7-9
Authorized (King James) Version
7 Whoso keepeth the law is a wise son:
but he that is a companion of riotous men shameth his father.
8 He that by usury and unjust gain increaseth his substance,
he shall gather it for him that will pity the poor.
9 He that turneth away his ear from hearing the law,
even his prayer shall be abomination.
Proverbs 28:7-9
New International Version
7 A discerning son heeds instruction,
but a companion of gluttons disgraces his father.(A)
8 Whoever increases wealth by taking interest(B) or profit from the poor
amasses it for another,(C) who will be kind to the poor.(D)
9 If anyone turns a deaf ear to my instruction,
even their prayers are detestable.(E)
