Proverbs 13:6-8

EasyEnglish Bible

⁶ When honest people do what is right, it keeps them safe.
    But when sinners do evil things, it destroys them.
⁷ Somebody who has nothing may still pretend to be rich.
    Somebody else may pretend to be poor, but he is very rich.
⁸ A rich person may have to use his money to save his life.
    But poor people do not have that problem.
