Proverbs 28:14 BBE

¹²  When the upright do well, there is great glory; but when evil-doers are lifted up, men do not let themselves be seen.

¹³  He who keeps his sins secret will not do well; but one who is open about them, and gives them up, will get mercy.

¹⁴  Happy is the man in whom is the fear of the Lord at all times; but he whose heart is hard will come into trouble.

¹⁵  Like a loud-voiced lion and a wandering bear, is an evil ruler over a poor people.

¹⁶  The prince who has no sense is a cruel ruler; but he who has no desire to get profit for himself will have long life.
