Proverbs 28:15-17

Legacy Standard Bible

¹⁵ Like a ^(A)roaring lion and a rushing bear
Is a ^(B)wicked ruler over a poor people.
¹⁶ A ^(C)leader who lacks discernment abounds in oppressions,
But he who hates greedy gain will prolong his days.
¹⁷ A man ^(D)oppressed with ^(E)the bloodguilt of life
Will flee until ^[a]death; let no one uphold him.
