Proverbs 28:16-21 King James 2000 (KJ2000)

16. The prince that lacks understanding is also a great oppressor: but he that hates covetousness shall prolong his days.

17. A man that does violence to the blood of any person shall flee to a pit; let no man help him.

18. Whosoever walks uprightly shall be saved: but he that is perverse in his ways shall fall at once.

19. He that tills his land shall have plenty of bread: but he that follows after worthless pursuits shall have poverty enough.

20. A faithful man shall abound with blessings: but he that makes haste to be rich shall not go unpunished.

21. To show partiality is not good: because for a piece of bread that man will transgress.
