Proverbs 28:2-6

²Because of the sin of the land, its troubles are increased; but by a man of wisdom and knowledge they will be put out like a fire.

³A man of wealth who is cruel to the poor is like a violent rain causing destruction of food.

⁴Those who have no respect for the law give praise to the evil-doer; but such as keep the law are against him.

⁵Evil men have no knowledge of what is right; but those who go after the Lord have knowledge of all things.

⁶Better is the poor man whose ways are upright, than the man of wealth whose ways are not straight.
