Proverbs 28:24-26
EasyEnglish Bible
24 If anyone cheats his parents,
    he may say that he has done nothing wrong.
But a person like that is as bad as a robber.
25 Greedy people cause a lot of trouble.
    But someone who trusts the Lord will enjoy many good things.
26 If you trust your own thoughts, you are a fool.
    But if you live in a wise way, you will be safe from danger.
Proverbs 28:24-26
Modern English Version
24 Whoever robs his father or his mother
    and says, “It is no transgression,”
    the same is the companion of a destroyer.
25 He who is of a proud heart stirs up strife,
    but he who puts his trust in the Lord will prosper.
26 He who trusts in his own heart is a fool,
    but whoever walks wisely will be delivered.
