Proverbs 28:14-16

Living Bible

¹⁴ Blessed is the man who reveres God, but the man who doesn’t care is headed for serious trouble.

¹⁵ A wicked ruler is as dangerous to the poor as a lion or bear attacking them.

¹⁶ Only a stupid prince will oppress his people, but a king will have a long reign if he hates dishonesty and bribes.
