Proverbs 15:25-28

²⁵The Lord pulls down the house of the proud, but he protects the boundaries of the widow's property.

²⁶The Lord hates the thoughts of the wicked, but he honors the words of the pure.

²⁷People greedy for ill-gotten gains make trouble for their families, but those who hate bribes will live.

²⁸Good people think how best to answer questions, but stupid people say all kinds of evil things.
