Proverbs 28:1-3

New Life Version

28 The sinful run away when no one is trying to catch them, but those who are right with God have as much strength of heart as a lion.

² When a nation sins, it has many rulers, but with a man of understanding and much learning, it will last a long time.

³ A poor man who makes it hard for the poor is like a heavy rain which leaves no food.
