Proverbs 28:8-10
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
8 Whoever amasses wealth by interest and overcharge[a]
gathers it for the one who is kind to the poor.
9 Those who turn their ears from hearing instruction,(A)
even their prayer is an abomination.
10 Those who mislead the upright into an evil way
will themselves fall into their own pit,
but the blameless will attain prosperity.
