Proverbs 13:7 Context
5A righteous man hateth lying: but a wicked man is loathsome, and commeth to shame. 6Righteousnesse keepeth him that is vpright in the way: but wickednesse ouerthroweth the sinner. 7There is that maketh himselfe rich, yet hath nothing: there is that maketh himselfe poore, yet hath great riches. 8The ransome of a mans life are his riches: but the poore heareth not rebuke. 9The light of the righteous reioyceth: but the lampe of the wicked shall be put out.
