Proverbs 15:27-29
Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

27 He that is greedy of gain troubleth his own house: but he that hateth bribes shall live. By mercy and faith sins are purged away: and by the fear of the Lord every one declineth from evil.

28 The mind of the just studieth obedience: the mouth of the wicked over floweth with evils.

29 The Lord is far from the wicked: and he will hear the prayers of the just.
