Proverbs 17:8

<< Proverbs 17:8 >>

Proverbs 17:8 A bribe is a charm in the sight of its owner; Wherever he turns, he prospers. (NASB ©1995)

Proverbs 21:14 A gift in secret subdues anger, And a bribe in the bosom, strong wrath.

Isaiah 1:23 Your rulers are rebels And companions of thieves; Everyone loves a bribe And chases after rewards. They do not defend the orphan, Nor does the widow's plea come before them.

Amos 5:12 For I know your transgressions are many and your sins are great, You who distress the righteous and accept bribes And turn aside the poor in the gate. (NASB ©1995)
