Proverbs 28:12-14

New Living Translation

¹²When the godly succeed, everyone is glad.
When the wicked take charge, people go into hiding.

¹³People who conceal their sins will not prosper,
but if they confess and turn from them, they will receive mercy.

¹⁴Blessed are those who fear to do wrong,^[a]
but the stubborn are headed for serious trouble.

but whoever hardens their heart falls into trouble.
