World English Bible

⁶Better is the poor who walks in his integrity,
than he who is perverse in his ways, and he is rich.

Proverbs 28:6

Modern English Version

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

¹⁹One who works his land will have an abundance of food;
but one who chases fantasies will have his fill of poverty.

¹⁹He who tills his land will have plenty of bread,
but he who follows after vain things will have poverty enough.

²⁵One who is greedy stirs up strife;
but one who trusts in Yahweh will prosper.

²⁵He who is of a proud heart stirs up strife,
but he who puts his trust in the Lord will prosper.

²⁷One who gives to the poor has no lack;
but one who closes his eyes will have many curses.

²⁷He who gives to the poor will not lack,
but he who hides his eyes will have many a curse.
