Proverbs 29:7

"The righteous taketh knowledge of the cause of the poor; The wicked hath not understanding to know it."

"The righteous man is concerned for the cause of the helpless, but the wicked understand no such concern."[7] There is no test that separates the wicked from the righteous as effectively as this one. The Christ himself said, "Blessed are ye poor"; and to ignore the rights and necessities of the poor, in all dispensations of God's love, is the invariable hallmark of the wicked.
