Proverbs 28:6-8 Modern English Version (MEV)

6. Better is the poor who walks in his uprightnessthan he who is perverse in his ways, though he be rich.

7. Whoever keeps the law is a wise son,but he who is a companion of riotous men shames his father.

8. He who by usury and unjust gain increases his substancewill gather it for him who will pity the poor.
