Proverbs 28:14-18

NHEB(i) 14 Blessed is the man who is always reverent; but the one who hardens his heart will fall into evil. 15 As a roaring lion or a charging bear, so is a wicked ruler over helpless people. 16 A prince who lacks understanding is a cruel oppressor, but one who hates ill-gotten gain will prolong his days. 17 A man who is tormented by life blood will be a fugitive until death; no one will support him. 18 Whoever walks blamelessly is kept safe; but one with perverse ways will fall suddenly.
