Proverbs 17:23

A wicked
<07563>

[man] taketh
<03947> (8799)

a gift
<07810>

out of the bosom
<02436>

to pervert
<05186> (8687)

the ways
<0734>

of judgment
<04941>_.

Proverbs 21:14

A gift
<04976>

in secret
<05643>

pacifieth
<03711> (8799)

anger
<0639>_:

and a reward
<07810>

in the bosom
<02436>

strong
<05794>

wrath
<02534>_.

He will not regard
<05375> (8799) <06440>

any ransom
<03724>_;

neither will he rest content
<014> (8799)_,

though thou givest many
<07235> (8686)

gifts
<07810>_.

{He will...: Heb. He will not accept the face of any ransom}

A gift
<07810>

[is as] a precious
<02580>

stone
<068>

in the eyes
<05869>

of him that hath
<01167>

it: whithersoever it turneth
<06437> (8799)_,

it prospereth
<07919> (8686)_.

{a precious...: Heb. a stone of grace}
