Proverbs 14:21-23

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

²¹ He that despiseth his neighbour, sinneth: but he that sheweth mercy to the poor, shall be blessed. He that believeth in the Lord, loveth mercy.

²² They err that work evil: but mercy and truth prepare good things.

²³ In much work there shall be abundance: but where there are many words, there is oftentimes want.
