34 Righteousness exalts a nation, but sin is a reproach to any people.(A)
2 When the (A)righteous [a]increase, the people are glad,But when a wicked man rules, people groan.
2 When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice, but when the wicked rule, the people groan.(A)
18 Where there is (A)no [a]vision, the people (B)are out of control,But how (C)blessed is he who keeps the law.
