Proverbs 28:17
15 Like a roaring lion or a charging bear is a wicked ruler over a helpless people.
16 A leader who lacks judgment is also a great oppressor, but he who hates dishonest profit will prolong his days.
A man burdened by bloodguilt will flee into the Pit; let no one support him.
18 He who walks with integrity will be kept safe, but whoever is perverse in his ways will suddenly fall.
19 The one who works his land will have plenty of food, but whoever chases fantasies will have his fill of poverty.
Dette ble sagt til Israel i en bestemt tid, så det er lurt å lese det sammen med teksten rundt. Les gjerne versene rundt også, for sammenhengen gir ofte mer enn ett vers alene.
