September 15: Proverbs 28–29; 2 Corinthians 7
Morning: Proverbs 28–29 Proverbs 28–29 (Listen) 28 The wicked flee when no one pursues,<br /> but the righteous are bold as a lion.<br />2 When a land transgresses, it has many rulers,<br /> but with a man of understanding and knowledge,<br /> its stability will long continue.<br />3 A poor man who oppresses the poor<br /> is a beating rain that leaves no food.<br />4 Those who forsake the law praise the wicked,<br /> but those who keep the law strive against them.<br />5 Evil men do not understand justice,<br /> but those who seek the LORD understand it completely.<br />6 Better is a poor man who walks in his integrity<br /> than a rich man who is crooked in his ways.<br />7 The one who keeps the law is a son with understanding,<br /> but a companion of gluttons shames his father.<br />8 Whoever multiplies his wealth by interest and profit1<br /> gathers it for him who is generous to the poor.<br />9 If one turns away his ear from hearing the law,<br /> even his prayer is an abomination.<br />
