Proverbs 28:6

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

New Living Translation

⁶Better to be poor and honest
than to be dishonest and rich.

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

¹⁹A hard worker has plenty of food,
but a person who chases fantasies ends up in poverty.

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

²⁵Greed causes fighting;
trusting the Lord leads to prosperity.

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

²⁷Whoever gives to the poor will lack nothing,
but those who close their eyes to poverty will be cursed.
