Proverbs 28:15-17

Common English Bible

¹⁵ A wicked ruler over the poor
    is like a growling lion or a prowling bear.
¹⁶ A prince without understanding is a cruel oppressor,
    but one who hates unjust gain will live long.
¹⁷ If someone feels guilty about murder,
    don’t hold them back from fleeing to the pit.
