Proverbs 28:4-6

The Message

⁴ If you desert God’s law, you’re free to embrace depravity;
    if you love God’s law, you fight for it tooth and nail.

⁵ Justice makes no sense to the evilminded;
    those who seek God know it inside and out.

⁶ It’s better to be poor and direct
    than rich and crooked.
