PROV 28:15
As a roaring lion, and a ranging bear, So is a wicked ruler over a poor people.
PROV 28:16
The prince that lacketh understanding is also a great oppressor; But he that hateth covetousness shall prolong his days.
PROV 28:17
A man that is laden with the blood of any person Shall flee unto the pit; let no man stay him.
PROV 28:18
Whoso walketh uprightly shall be delivered; But he that is perverse in his ways shall fall at once.
PROV 28:19
He that tilleth his land shall have plenty of bread; But he that followeth after vain persons shall have poverty enough.
PROV 28:20
A faithful man shall abound with blessings; But he that maketh haste to be rich shall not be unpunished.
PROV 28:21
To have respect of persons is not good; Neither that a man should transgress for a piece of bread.
