Proverbs 15:25-27

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

²⁵ The Lord tears down the house of the proud,
    but maintains the widow’s boundaries.
²⁶ Evil plans are an abomination to the Lord,
    but gracious words are pure.
²⁷ Those who are greedy for unjust gain make trouble for their households,
    but those who hate bribes will live.
