Proverbs 28:23-25
New Catholic Bible

23 Whoever rebukes another[a] will in the end win more thanks
    than one who flatters with his tongue.
24 Anyone who robs his father or mother
    and denies that he has sinned
    is no better than a marauding bandit.
25 A greedy person provokes quarrels,
    but whoever trusts in the Lord will have success.
