Proverbs 28:4-13 NIV
4 Those who forsake instruction praise the wicked,
    but those who heed it resist them.
5 Evildoers do not understand what is right,
    but those who seek the Lord understand it fully.
6 Better the poor whose walk is blameless
    than the rich whose ways are perverse.
7 A discerning son heeds instruction,
    but a companion of gluttons disgraces his father.
8 Whoever increases wealth by taking interest or profit from the poor
    amasses it for another, who will be kind to the poor.
9 If anyone turns a deaf ear to my instruction,
    even their prayers are detestable.
10 Whoever leads the upright along an evil path
    will fall into their own trap,
    but the blameless will receive a good inheritance.
11 The rich are wise in their own eyes;
    one who is poor and discerning sees how deluded they are.
12 When the righteous triumph, there is great elation;
    but when the wicked rise to power, people go into hiding.
13 Whoever conceals their sins does not prosper,
    but the one who confesses and renounces them finds mercy.
