Proverbs 28:11-16

¹¹The rich man is wise in his own eyes; but the indigent that hath understanding can search him through.

¹²When the righteous exult, there is great splendor; but when the wicked rise up, a man hath to be sought for.

¹³He that concealeth his transgressions will not prosper; but whoso confesseth and forsaketh them will obtain mercy.

¹⁴Happy is the man that always dreadeth to do evil; but he that hardeneth his heart will fall into unhappiness.

¹⁵As a roaring lion, and a greedy bear, so is a wicked ruler over an indigent people.

¹⁶The prince that is void of understanding is also a great oppressor; but he that hateth unjust gain will prolong his days.
