Proverbs 21:13-18

Proverbs 21:13-18 NCV

Whoever ignores the poor when they cry for help will also cry for help and not be answered. A secret gift will calm an angry person; a present given in secrecy will quiet great anger. When justice is done, good people are happy, but evil people are ruined. Whoever does not use good sense will end up among the dead. Whoever loves pleasure will become poor; whoever loves wine and perfume will never be rich. Wicked people will suffer instead of good people, and those who cannot be trusted will suffer instead of those who do right.
