Proverb of the Week
Do not rob the poor, because he is poor,
or crush the afflicted at the gate,
for the LORD will plead their cause
and rob of life those who rob them.
- Proverbs 22:22-23 (ESV)
Throughout the Bible, God reveals a special concern that he has for those who are poor because of circumstances beyond their control, so it should come as no surprise that those who take advantage of the poor, or heap more misery upon them, would be subject to harsh retribution at his hand.
