Proverbs 28

1The wicked man flees though no one pursues,

but the righteous are as bold as a lion.

9If anyone turns a deaf ear to the law,

even his prayers are detestable. 

13He who conceals his sins does not prosper,

but whoever confesses and renounces them finds mercy. 

19He who works his land will have abundant food,

but the one who chases fantasies will have his fill of poverty.
