Proverbs 28:17-23

¹⁷No man sustain a man that falsely challengeth the blood of a man, (even) if he fleeth till to the pit. (Let no one protect someone who oppresseth unto the blood, that is, unto the murder, of another person, yea, let him flee into the pit.)

¹⁸He that goeth simply shall be safe (or He who goeth honestly, or with integrity, shall be safe); (but) he that goeth by wayward ways, shall fall down at once.

¹⁹He that worketh his land, shall be filled with loaves; he that followeth idleness (or but he who is idle, or lazy), shall be filled with neediness.

²⁰A faithful man shall be praised much; but he that hasteth to be made rich, shall not be innocent. (A faithful person shall be much praised; but he who hasteneth to be made rich, shall not be innocent.)

²¹He that knoweth a face in doom, doeth not well; this man forsaketh truth, yea, for a morsel of bread. (He who knoweth the person whom he is judging, doeth wrongly; this person deserteth the truth, yea, for a morsel of bread.)

²²A man that hasteth to be made rich, and hath envy to other men (or and hath envy of others), knoweth not that neediness shall come up on him.

²³He that reproveth a man, shall find grace afterward with him, (or He who rebuketh someone, shall find favour afterward with him); more than he that deceiveth by flatterings of (the) tongue.
