Proverbs 28:11-28

¹¹The rich is wise in self-esteem,
but an intelligent poor person sees through the pose.
¹²When the righteous triumph, there is great glory,
but when the wicked prevail, people go into hiding.
¹³No one who conceals transgressions will prosper,
but one who confesses and forsakes them will obtain mercy.
¹⁴Happy is the one who is never without fear,
but one who is hard-hearted will fall into calamity.
¹⁵Like a roaring lion or a charging bear
is a wicked ruler over a poor people.
¹⁶A ruler who lacks understanding is a cruel oppressor;
but one who hates unjust gain will enjoy a long life.
¹⁷If someone is burdened with the blood of another,
let that killer be a fugitive until death;
let no one offer assistance.
¹⁸One who walks in integrity will be safe,
but whoever follows crooked ways will fall into the Pit.
¹⁹Anyone who tills the land will have plenty of bread,
but one who follows worthless pursuits will have plenty of poverty.
²⁰The faithful will abound with blessings,
but one who is in a hurry to be rich will not go unpunished.
²¹To show partiality is not good—
yet for a piece of bread a person may do wrong.
²²The miser is in a hurry to get rich
and does not know that loss is sure to come.
²³Whoever rebukes a person will afterward find more favor
than one who flatters with the tongue.
²⁴Anyone who robs father or mother
and says, “That is no crime,”
is partner to a thug.
²⁵The greedy person stirs up strife,
but whoever trusts in the Lord will be enriched.
²⁶Those who trust in their own wits are fools;
but those who walk in wisdom come through safely.
²⁷Whoever gives to the poor will lack nothing,
but one who turns a blind eye will get many a curse.
²⁸When the wicked prevail, people go into hiding;
but when they perish, the righteous increase.
