Proverbs 28:18-28
Anyone who lives without blame is kept safe.
But anyone whose path is crooked will fall into the pit.
Those who work their land will have plenty of food.
But those who chase dreams will be very poor.
A faithful person will be richly blessed.
But anyone who wants to get rich will be punished.
Favoring one person over another is not good.
But a person will do wrong for a piece of bread.
Those who won’t share what they have want to get rich.
They don’t know they are going to be poor.
It is better to warn a person than to pretend to praise them.
In the end that person will be more pleased with you.
Anyone who steals from their parents and says, “It’s not wrong,”
is just like someone who destroys.
People who always want more stir up conflict.
But those who trust in the Lord will succeed.
Those who trust in themselves are foolish.
But those who live wisely are kept safe.
Those who give to poor people will have all they need.
But those who close their eyes to the poor will receive many curses.
When those who are evil take charge, other people hide.
But when those who are evil die, godly people grow stronger.
