Proverbs 28:23-25
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised
23 Whoever rebukes a person will afterwards find more favour
than one who flatters with the tongue.
24 Anyone who robs father or mother
and says, ‘That is no crime’,
is partner to a thug.
25 The greedy person stirs up strife,
but whoever trusts in the Lord will be enriched.
Proverbs 28:23-25
New International Version
23 Whoever rebukes a person will in the end gain favor
rather than one who has a flattering tongue.(A)

25 (C)He who is of a proud heart stirs up strife,
(D)But he who trusts in the Lord will be prospered.
