Proverbs 13:6-8

Lexham English Bible

⁶ Righteousness will guard the upright of way,
    but wickedness will overthrow sin.
⁷ There is one who acts rich but has nothing;^[a]
    another who pretends to be poor but has wealth.
⁸ The ransom of the life of a man is his wealth,
    but the poor does not receive a threat.
