Proverbs 15:27-29

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition

²⁷ Those who are greedy for unjust gain make trouble for their households,
    but those who hate bribes will live.
²⁸ The mind of the righteous ponders how to answer,
    but the mouth of the wicked pours out evil.
²⁹ The Lord is far from the wicked,
    but he hears the prayer of the righteous.
