Proverbs 28:6

Revised Standard Version (RSV-CI)

Better is a poor man who walks in his integrity than a rich man who is perverse in his ways.

See the chapter Copy

He who walks in uprightness fears the Lord, but he who is devious in his ways despises him.

Better is a little with righteousness than great revenues with injustice.

Better is a poor man who walks in his integrity than a man who is perverse in speech, and is a fool.

What is desired in a man is loyalty, and a poor man is better than a liar.

He who walks in integrity will be delivered, but he who is perverse in his ways will fall into a pit.
