Ecclesiastes 5:8

He who oppresses the poor to make more for himself Or who gives to the rich will only come to lack.

If you say, “Behold, we did not know this,” Does not He who weighs the hearts understand? And does not He who guards your soul know? And will not He render to man according to his work?

Furthermore, I have seen under the sun that in the place of justice there is wickedness, and in the place of righteousness there is wickedness.

Then I looked again at all the acts of oppression which were being done under the sun. And behold, I saw the tears of the oppressed and that they had no one to comfort them; and on the side of their oppressors was power, but they had no one to comfort them.

For oppression gives a wise man over to madness, And a bribe destroys the heart.

All this I have seen and given my heart to every work that has been done under the sun wherein a man has power over another man to his calamity.

The Vanity of Riches
