Proverbs 28:25

All About Life

²⁴
He who robs his father or his mother
And says, “This is no sin,”
Is [not only a thief but also] the companion of a man who destroys.
²⁵ 
An arrogant and greedy man stirs up strife,
But he who trusts in the Lord will be blessed and prosper.
²⁶
He who trusts confidently in his own heart is a [dull, thickheaded] fool,
But he who walks in [skillful and godly] wisdom will be rescued.
