Proverbs 28:1-6 (New Century Version)
View In My Bible
1
Evil people run even though no one is chasing them, but good people are as brave as a lion.
2
When a country is lawless, it has one ruler after another; but when it is led by a man with understanding and knowledge, it continues strong.
3
Rulers who mistreat the poor are like a hard rain that destroys the crops.
4
Those who disobey what they have been taught praise the wicked, but those who obey what they have been taught are against them.
5
Evil people do not understand justice, but those who follow the Lord understand it completely.
6
It is better to be poor and innocent than to be rich and wicked.
