Proverbs 28:23-25

EasyEnglish Bible

²³ If you warn someone that he has done a wrong thing,
    he will thank you in the end.
He will like you more than if you only say sweet words to him.
²⁴ If anyone cheats his parents,
    he may say that he has done nothing wrong.
But a person like that is as bad as a robber.
²⁵ Greedy people cause a lot of trouble.
    But someone who trusts the Lord will enjoy many good things.
