Proverbs 13:7
5 The righteous hate falsehood, but the wicked bring shame and disgrace.
6 Righteousness guards the man of integrity, but wickedness undermines the sinner.
One pretends to be rich, but has nothing; another pretends to be poor, yet has great wealth.
8 Riches may ransom a man’s life, but a poor man hears no threat.
9 The light of the righteous shines brightly, but the lamp of the wicked is extinguished.
