Proverbs 28:17 BBE

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.

¹⁷  One who has been the cause of a man's death will go in flight to the underworld: let no man give him help.

¹⁸  He whose ways are upright will be safe, but sudden will be the fall of him whose ways are twisted.

¹⁹  By ploughing his land a man will have bread in full measure; but he who goes after good-for-nothing persons will be poor enough.
