Proverbs 21:13-15

New International Version

¹³ Whoever shuts their ears to the cry of the poor
    will also cry out^(A) and not be answered.^(B)

¹⁴ A gift given in secret soothes anger,
    and a bribe concealed in the cloak pacifies great wrath.^(C)

¹⁵ When justice is done, it brings joy to the righteous
    but terror to evildoers.^(D)
