Proverbs 28:2-4

Darby Translation

² By the transgression of a land many are the princes thereof; but by a man of understanding [and] of knowledge, [its] stability is prolonged.

³ A poor man who oppresseth the helpless is a sweeping rain which leaveth no food.

⁴ They that forsake the law praise the wicked; but such as keep the law contend with them.
