Proverbs 21:13-15

New International Reader's Version

¹³ Whoever refuses to listen to the cries of poor people
    will also cry out and not be answered.

¹⁴ A secret gift calms down anger.
    A hidden favor softens great anger.

¹⁵ When you do what is fair, you make godly people glad.
    But you terrify those who do what is evil.
