Proverbs 22:2

American Standard Version (1901)

The rich and the poor meet together: Jehovah is the maker of them all.

See the chapter Copy

Did not he that made me in the womb make him? And did not one fashion us in the womb?

He that oppresseth the poor reproacheth his Maker; But he that hath mercy on the needy honoreth him.

Jehovah maketh poor, and maketh rich: He bringeth low, he also lifteth up.

The poor man and the oppressor meet together; Jehovah lighteneth the eyes of them both.

That respecteth not the persons of princes, Nor regardeth the rich more than the poor; For they all are the work of his hands.

And the eye cannot say to the hand, I have no need of thee: or again the head to the feet, I have no need of you.
