Proverbs 21:13-15 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

13. He who shuts his ear to the cry of the poor Will also cry himself and not be answered.

14. A gift in secret subdues anger, And a bribe in the bosom, strong wrath.

15. The exercise of justice is joy for the righteous, But is terror to the workers of iniquity.
