16Whoever oppresses the poor to increase his own wealth, or gives to the rich, will only come to poverty. 17Incline your ear, and hear the words of the wise, and apply your heart to my knowledge, 18for it will be pleasant if you keep them within you, if all of them are ready on your lips.New International Version
