Oppressing the Poor Leads to Loss

 A good name is rather to be chosen than great riches, and loving favour rather than silver and gold.  The rich and poor meet together: the LORD is the maker of them all.

  The rich ruleth over the poor, and the borrower is servant to the lender.  He that soweth iniquity shall reap vanity: and the rod of his anger shall fail.  He that hath a bountiful eye shall be blessed; for he giveth of his bread to the poor. 

 

 He that oppresseth the poor to increase his riches, and he that giveth to the rich, shall surely come to want.

 

 

Proverbs 22:1-2, 7-9, 16 (KJV)
