Proverbs 28:6-8

Modern English Version

⁶ Better is the poor who walks in his uprightness
    than he who is perverse in his ways, though he be rich.

⁷ Whoever keeps the law is a wise son,
    but he who is a companion of riotous men shames his father.

⁸ He who by usury and unjust gain increases his substance
    will gather it for him who will pity the poor.
