Proverbs 28
28:1An impious man flees with no one pursuing; but the just man is secure as a lion.
28:2Because of the sins of the impious, litigations arise; but a clever man extinguishes them.
28:3A vigorous man with impious deeds extorts the poor as a fierce and unprofitable rain.
28:4Thus the ones abandoning the law laud impiety; but the ones loving the law put a wall around themselves.
28:5Evil men do not comprehend equity; but the ones seeking the lord perceive in all.
28:6Better a poor man going in truth, than a rich liar.
28:7A discerning son keeps the law; but the one who tends carnality dishonors his father.
28:8The one multiplying his wealth with interest and usury, gathers it for one showing mercy on the poor.
28:9The one turning aside his ear to not hear the law, even he abhors his own prayer.
28:10The one who wanders upright men in an evil way, shall himself fall into corruption; and the lawless ones shall go through good things, and they shall not enter to them.
28:11A rich man is wise to himself; but an intelligent needy man shall condemn him.
28:12Through the help of the just ones much glory comes to pass; but in the places of the impious men are being captured.
28:13The one covering over his impiety, his way shall not be prospered; but the one describing and reproving shall be loved.
28:14Blessed is a man who is struck with awe of all things through veneration; but the hard of heart shall fall into evils.
28:15A lion hungering, and a wolf thirsting is the one who is sovereign of a destitute nation being poor.
28:16A king lacking revenue is a great extortioner; but the one detesting injustice shall live a long time.
28:17The one guaranteeing a loan of a man under accusation of murder will be an exile, and not in safety.
28:18The one going justly is helped; but the one going by crooked ways shall be entangled.
28:19The one working his own land shall be filled with bread loaves; but the one pursuing ease shall be filled with poverty.
28:20A man worthy of trust in many things shall be blessed; but the evil one shall not be unpunished.
28:21The one who does not feel respect for persons of the just, is not good; such a one will deliver over a man for a morsel of bread.
28:22A bewitching man hastens to be rich, and does not know that a merciful man will prevail over him.
28:23The one reproving a man's ways shall have favors, rather than the flatterer with the tongue.
28:24The one who throws off his father or mother, and assumes he does not sin; this one is partner of an impious man.
28:25An insatiable man judges in vain; but the one yielding upon the lord will be in care.
28:26The one who yields to a rash heart, such a one is a fool; but the one who goes in wisdom shall be delivered.
28:27The one who gives to the poor shall not be in want; but the one who turns his eye will be in much perplexity.
28:28In the places of the impious the just moan; but in the destruction of those the just shall be multiplied.
