箴言28.12-19

When the righteous triumph, there is great elation; but when the wicked rise to power, men go into hiding. He who conceals his sins does not prosper, but whoever confesses and renounces them finds mercy. Blessed is the man who always fears the LORD, but he who hardens his heart falls into trouble. Like a roaring lion or a charging bear is a wicked man ruling over a helpless people. A tyrannical ruler lacks judgment, but he who hates ill-gotten gain will enjoy a long life. A man tormented by the guilt of murder will be a fugitive till death; let no one support him. He whose walk is blameless is kept safe, but he whose ways are perverse will suddenly fall. He who works his land will have abundant food, but the one who chases fantasies will have his fill of poverty.

 义人得志，有大荣耀；恶人兴起，人就躲藏。  遮掩自己罪过的，必不亨通；承认离弃罪过的，必蒙怜恤。 常存敬畏的，便为有福；心存刚硬的，必陷在祸患里。 暴虐的君王辖制贫民，好象吼叫的狮子、觅食的熊。 无知的君多行暴虐；以贪财为可恨的，必年长日久。 背负流人血之罪的，必往坑里奔跑，谁也不可拦阻他。 行动正直的，必蒙拯救；行事弯曲的，立时跌倒。 耕种自己田地的，必得饱食；追随虚浮的，足受穷乏。
