Proverbs 22:2

Lighthouse Bible 2006

The rich and poor meet together: the LORD 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?

How much less to him that does not favor the persons of princes, nor regards the rich more than the poor? for they all are the work of his hands.

He who oppresses the poor reproaches his Maker: but he who honors him has mercy on the poor.

The poor and the deceitful man meet together: the LORD enlightens both their eyes.

And the eye cannot say to the hand, I have no need of you: nor again the head to the feet, I have no need of you.

The LORD makes poor, and makes rich: he brings low, and lifts up.
