Proverbs 21:12-14

Amplified Bible

¹² 
The righteous one keeps an eye on the house of the wicked—
How the wicked are cast down to ruin.
¹³ 
Whoever shuts his ears at the cry of the poor
Will cry out himself and not be answered.^(A)
14 
A gift in secret subdues anger,
And a bribe [hidden] in the pocket, strong wrath.
