Proverbs 28:26-28
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition
26 Those who trust in their own wits are fools;
but those who walk in wisdom come through safely.
27 Whoever gives to the poor will lack nothing,
but one who turns a blind eye will get many a curse.
28 When the wicked prevail, people go into hiding;
but when they perish, the righteous increase.

28 When the wicked arise, (C)men hide themselves;
But when they perish, the righteous increase.
