Proverbs 28:4-13

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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