Proverbs 28:12-16

¹²When righteous men do rejoice, there is great glory: But when the wicked rise, a man is hidden.

¹³He that covereth his sins shall not prosper: But whoso confesseth and forsaketh them shall have mercy.

¹⁴Happy is the man that feareth alway: But he that hardeneth his heart shall fall into mischief.

¹⁵As a roaring lion, and a ranging bear; So is a wicked ruler over the poor people.

¹⁶The prince that wanteth understanding is also a great oppressor: But he that hateth covetousness shall prolong his days.
