Proverbs 21:12-14
American Standard Version
12 [a]The righteous man considereth the house of the wicked,
How the wicked are overthrown to their ruin.
13 Whoso stoppeth his ears at the cry of the poor,
He also shall cry, but shall not be heard.
14 A gift in secret [b]pacifieth anger;
And a present in the bosom, strong wrath.
