Proverbs 28:12-14
The Message
12 When good people are promoted, everything is great,
but when the bad are in charge, watch out!
13 You can’t whitewash your sins and get by with it;
you find mercy by admitting and leaving them.
14 A tenderhearted person lives a blessed life;
a hardhearted person lives a hard life.
Proverbs 28:12-14
New International Version
Proverbs 28:12-14
New International Version
12 When the righteous triumph, there is great elation;(A)
but when the wicked rise to power, people go into hiding.(B)
13 Whoever conceals their sins(C) does not prosper,
but the one who confesses(D) and renounces them finds mercy.(E)
14 Blessed is the one who always trembles before God,
but whoever hardens their heart falls into trouble.
