Proverbs 28:15-28
English Standard Version
15 Like (A)a roaring lion or (B)a charging bear
is (C)a wicked ruler over a poor people.
16 A ruler who (D)lacks understanding is a cruel oppressor,
but he who hates unjust gain will prolong his days.
17 If one is burdened with (E)the blood of another,
he will be a fugitive until death;[a]
let no one help him.
18 (F)Whoever (G)walks in integrity will be delivered,
but he who is crooked in his ways will suddenly fall.
19 (H)Whoever works his land will have plenty of bread,
but he who follows worthless pursuits will have plenty of poverty.
20 A faithful man will abound with blessings,
but whoever hastens to be rich (I)will not go unpunished.
21 To show (J)partiality is not good,
but for (K)a piece of bread a man will do wrong.
22 A (L)stingy man[b] (M)hastens after wealth
and does not know that (N)poverty will come upon him.
23 Whoever (O)rebukes a man will afterward find more favor
than (P)he who flatters with his tongue.
24 Whoever robs his father or his mother
and says, “That is no transgression,”
is (Q)a companion to a man who destroys.
25 A greedy man (R)stirs up strife,
but the one who trusts in the Lord will (S)be enriched.
26 Whoever (T)trusts in his own mind is a fool,
but he who walks in wisdom will be delivered.
27 Whoever (U)gives to the poor will not want,
but he who (V)hides his eyes will get many a curse.
28 When (W)the wicked rise, (X)people hide themselves,
but when they perish, the righteous increase.

Proverbs 28:15-28
New International Version
15 Like a roaring lion or a charging bear
is a wicked ruler over a helpless people.
16 A tyrannical ruler practices extortion,
but one who hates ill-gotten gain will enjoy a long reign.
17 Anyone tormented by the guilt of murder
will seek refuge(A) in the grave;
let no one hold them back.
18 The one whose walk is blameless is kept safe,(B)
but the one whose ways are perverse will fall(C) into the pit.[a]
19 Those who work their land will have abundant food,
but those who chase fantasies will have their fill of poverty.(D)
20 A faithful person will be richly blessed,
but one eager to get rich will not go unpunished.(E)
22 The stingy are eager to get rich
and are unaware that poverty awaits them.(I)
23 Whoever rebukes a person will in the end gain favor
rather than one who has a flattering tongue.(J)
24 Whoever robs their father or mother(K)
and says, “It’s not wrong,”
is partner to one who destroys.(L)
27 Those who give to the poor will lack nothing,(Q)
but those who close their eyes to them receive many curses.(R)
28 When the wicked rise to power, people go into hiding;(S)
but when the wicked perish, the righteous thrive.
