Proverbs 28:19-21
Lexham English Bible
19 He who tills his ground will have plenty bread,
but he who follows fantasies will have plenty of poverty.
20 A man of faithfulness has abundant blessings,
but he who hurries to become rich will not go unpunished.
21 Showing partiality[a] is not good,
and over a morsel of bread, a strong man will do wrong.
