Proverbs 14:21

Proverbs Of Solomon

²⁰ The poor man is hated even by his neighbour, but the man of wealth has numbers of friends. ²¹ He who has no respect for his neighbour is a sinner, but he who has pity for the poor is happy. ²² Will not the designers of evil come into error? But mercy and good faith are for the designers of good.
