Proverbs 21:13-15

21st Century King James Version

¹³ Whoso stoppeth his ears at the cry of the poor, he also shall himself cry, but shall not be heard.

¹⁴ A gift in secret pacifieth anger, and a bribe in the bosom, strong wrath.

¹⁵ It is a joy to the just to do judgment, but destruction shall come to the workers of iniquity.
