Proverbs 28:15-17
Lexham English Bible
15 Like a roaring lion and a charging bear
is a wicked ruler over a poor people.
16 A ruler who lacks understanding is[a] a cruel oppressor,
but those who hate unjust gain will have long[b] days.
17 A person who is burdened with the blood of another,[c]
until death he will flee;
do not take hold of him.
