Mishle 21:12-14

Orthodox Jewish Bible

¹² The tzaddik (righteous one) wisely considereth the bais of the rashah, and hurleth the resha’im to rah.

¹³ He who stoppeth his ozen at the cry of the dal (poor), he also shall cry out himself, but shall not be heard.

¹⁴ A mattan (gift) in secret pacifieth af (anger), and a shochad (bribe) in the kheyk (bosom, i.e., a concealed bribe) strong wrath.
