Proverbs 28
English: American Standard Version
28 The wicked flee when no man pursueth; But the righteous are bold as a lion.
3 A needy man that oppresseth the poor Is [like] a sweeping rain which leaveth no food.
4 They that forsake the law praise the wicked; But such as keep the law contend with them.
5 Evil men understand not justice; But they that seek Jehovah understand all things.
7 Whoso keepeth the law is a wise son; But he that is a companion of gluttons shameth his father.
9 He that turneth away his ear from hearing the law, Even his prayer is an abomination.
11 The rich man is wise in his own conceit; But the poor that hath understanding searcheth him out.
12 When the righteous triumph, there is great glory; But when the wicked rise, men hide themselves.
14 Happy is the man that feareth alway; But he that hardeneth his heart shall fall into mischief.
15 [As] a roaring lion, and a ranging bear, [So is] a wicked ruler over a poor people.
17 A man that is laden with the blood of any person Shall flee unto the pit; let no man stay him.
22 he that hath an evil eye hasteth after riches, And knoweth not that want shall come upon him.
23 He that rebuketh a man shall afterward find more favor Than he that flattereth with the tongue.
26 He that trusteth in his own heart is a fool; But whoso walketh wisely, he shall be delivered.
27 He that giveth unto the poor shall not lack; But he that hideth his eyes shall have many a curse.
28 When the wicked rise, men hide themselves; But when they perish, the righteous increase.
