Proverbs 28:19

¹⁷ A man burdened by bloodguilt will flee into the Pit; let no one support him.

¹⁸ He who walks with integrity will be kept safe, but whoever is perverse in his ways will suddenly fall.

The one who works his land will have plenty of food, but whoever chases fantasies will have his fill of poverty.

²⁰ A faithful man will abound with blessings, but one eager to be rich will not go unpunished.

²¹ To show partiality is not good, yet a man will do wrong for a piece of bread.
