Proverbs 28:22


← Proverbs 28:21 Proverbs 28:22 (KJV) Proverbs 28:23 →
To have respect of persons is not good: for for a piece of bread that man will transgress.
He that hasteth to be rich hath an evil eye, and considereth not that poverty shall come upon him.
He that rebuketh a man afterwards shall find more favour than he that flattereth with the tongue.
