Proverbs 28:6

The Scriptures 1998

Better is the poor who walks in his integrity Than one perverse in his ways, who is rich.

See the chapter Copy

He who walks in his straightness fears יהוה, But he whose ways are crooked despises Him.

Better is a little with righteousness, Than a large income without right-ruling.

Better is the poor walking in his integrity Than one of perverse lips, who is a fool.

What is desirable in a man is his kindness, And a poor man is better than a liar.

He who walks blamelessly is saved, But the perverted of ways falls at once.
