Proverbs 22:16-19

¹⁶He that oppresses the poor, increases his own substance, yet gives to the rich so as to make it less.

¹⁷Incline your ear to the words of wise men: hear also my word, and apply your heart,

¹⁸that you may know that they are good: and if you lay them to heart, they shall also gladden you on your lips.

¹⁹That your hope may be in the Lord, and he may make your way known to you.
