TSK · Proverbs 22:7

There were also some who said, "We have borrowed money for the king's tribute using our fields and our vineyards as collateral.

He who oppresses the poor shows contempt for his Maker, but he who is kind to the needy honors him.

Whoever oppresses the poor for his own increase and whoever gives to the rich, both come to poverty.

It will 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 creditor, so with the debtor; as with the taker of interest, so with the giver of interest.

Listen to this word, you cows of Bashan, who are on the mountain of Samaria, who oppress the poor, who crush the needy, who tell their husbands, "Bring us drinks!"

Hear this, you who desire to swallow up the needy, and cause the poor of the land to fail,

But because he couldn't pay, his lord commanded him to be sold, with his wife, his children, and all that he had, and payment to be made.

Come now, you rich, weep and howl for your miseries that are coming on you.
