Proverbs 28:11-13
New Catholic Bible
11 The rich man may believe he is wise,
but the poor man with discernment will see through him.
12 When the righteous triumph, there is a great celebration,
but when the wicked prevail, the people go into hiding.
13 No one who conceals his transgressions will prosper,
but one who confesses and renounces them will obtain mercy.[a]
Footnotes
- Proverbs 28:13 Sin weighs heavily on those who do not own up to it (see Prov 3:7-8; Ps 32:3), but those who acknowledge their sin find mercy, forgiveness, and joy (see Ps 32:5, 10-11).
