TSK · Proverbs 22:7

There were also that said, We have borrowed money for the king's tribute, [and that upon] our lands and vineyards.

¶ He that oppresseth the poor reproacheth his Maker: but he that honoureth him hath mercy on the poor.

¶ He that oppresseth the poor to increase his [riches, and] he that giveth to the rich, [shall] surely [come] to want.

And it shall be, as with the people, so with the priest; as with the servant, so with his master; as with the maid, so with her mistress; as with the buyer, so with the seller; as with the lender, so with the borrower; as with the taker of usury, so with the giver of usury to him.

¶ Hear this word, ye kine of Bashan, that [are] in the mountain of Samaria, which oppress the poor, which crush the needy, which say to their masters, Bring, and let us drink.

¶ Hear this, O ye that swallow up the needy, even to make the poor of the land to fail,

‹But forasmuch as he had not to pay, his lord commanded him to be sold, and his wife, and children, and all that he had, and payment to be made.›

¶ Go to now, [ye] rich men, weep and howl for your miseries that shall come upon [you].
