Proverbs 28:25-27
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
25 The greedy person stirs up strife,
but the one who trusts in the Lord will prosper.
26 Those who trust in themselves are fools,
but those who walk in wisdom are safe.
27 Those who give to the poor have no lack,(A)
but those who avert their eyes, many curses.
