He that is greedy of gain troubleth his own house; but he that hateth gifts shall live.
El que es codicioso de ganancias trae problemas a su propia familia, pero el que rechaza los sobornos tendrá una buena vida.
La codicia trae problemas a la familia, pero rechazar la corrupción lleva a una vida próspera.
📚 Contexto Histórico
This proverb was written during ancient Israel's time when corruption and bribery were common problems in government and business dealings. The contrast between 'greedy gain' and 'hating gifts' reflects the ongoing struggle between personal integrity and the temptation to acquire wealth through questionable means. In that culture, accepting improper gifts or bribes could compromise one's ability to make fair judgments.
