Proverbs 28:13-15

¹³He that hideth his great trespasses, shall not be made rightful; but he that acknowledgeth and forsaketh them, shall get mercy.

¹⁴Blessed is the man, which is ever dreadful; but he that is of hard heart, shall fall into evil.

¹⁵A roaring lion, and an hungry bear, is a wicked prince on a poor people.
