Proverbs 28:22-24
1599 Geneva Bible
22 A man with a wicked [a]eye hasteth to riches, and knoweth not that poverty shall come upon him.
23 He that rebuketh a man, shall find more favor at the length, than he that flattereth with his tongue.
24 He that robbeth his father and mother, and saith, It is no transgression, is the companion of a man that destroyeth.
