Proverbs 28:21 Context
19He that tilleth his land, shal haue plentie of bread: but he that followeth after vaine persons, shall haue pouerty enough. 20A faithfull man shall abound with blessings: but hee that maketh haste to be rich, shall not be innocent. 21To haue respect of persons, is not good: for, for a piece of bread that man will transgresse. 22He that hasteth to bee rich, hath an euill eye, and considereth not that pouerty shall come vpon him. 23He that rebuketh a man, afterwards shall find more fauour, then he that flattereth with the tongue.
