Proverbs Chapter 28

28:1. The wicked man fleeth, when no man pursueth: but the just, bold as
a lion, shall be without dread.

28:2. For the sins of the land many are the princes thereof: and for the
wisdom of a man, and the knowledge of those things that are said, the
life of the prince shall be prolonged.

28:3. A poor man that oppresseth the poor, is like a violent shower,
which bringeth a famine.

28:4. They that forsake the law, praise the wicked man: they that keep
it, are incensed against him.

28:5. Evil men think not on judgment: but they that seek after the Lord,
take notice of all things.

28:6. Better is the poor man walking in his simplicity, than the rich in
crooked ways.

28:7. He that keepeth the law, is a wise son: but he that feedeth
gluttons, shameth his father.

28:8. He that heapeth together riches by usury and loan, gathereth them
for him that will be bountiful to the poor.

28:9. He that turneth away his ears from hearing the law, his prayer
shall be an abomination.

28:10. He that deceiveth the just in a wicked way, shall fall in his own
destruction: and the upright shall possess his goods.

28:11. The rich man seemeth to himself wise: but the poor man that is
prudent shall search him out.

28:12. In the joy of the just there is great glory: when the wicked
reign, men are ruined.

28:13. He that hideth his sins, shall not prosper: but he that shall
confess, and forsake them, shall obtain mercy.

28:14. Blessed is the man that is always fearful: but he that is
hardened in mind shall fall into evil.

28:15. As a roaring lion, and a hungry bear, so is a wicked prince over
the poor people.

28:16. A prince void of prudence shall oppress many by calumny: but he
that hateth covetousness, shall prolong his days.

28:17. A man that doth violence to the blood of a person, if he flee
even to the pit, no man will stay him.

28:18. He that walketh uprightly, shall be saved: he that is perverse in
his ways, shall fall at once.

28:19. He that tilleth his ground, shall be filled with bread: but he
that followeth idleness, shall be filled with poverty.

28:20. A faithful man shall be much praised: but he that maketh haste to
be rich, shall not be innocent.

28:21. He that hath respect to a person in judgment, doth not well: such
a man even for a morsel of bread forsaketh the truth.

28:22. A man that maketh haste to be rich, and envieth others, is
ignorant that poverty shall come upon him.
