New Testament

Proverbs 28:5-10 New International Reader's Version (NIRV)

5. Sinful men don't understand what is fair. But those who worship the Lord understand it completely.

6. It is better to be poor and live without blame than to be rich and follow a crooked path.

7. A child who obeys the law understands what is right. But a child who likes to eat too much brings shame on his father.

8. A person who increases his wealth by charging high interest piles it up for someone who will be kind to poor people.

9. If you don't pay attention to the law, even your prayers are hated.

10. Those who lead honest people down an evil path will fall into their own trap. But those who are without blame will receive good things.
