28 The wicked ^(A)flee when there is no one pursuing,
But the righteous are ^[a]secure as a lion.

⁴ Those who forsake the law ^(A)praise the wicked,
But those who keep the law ^(B)strive with them.

¹² When the ^(A)righteous exult, there is great honor,
But ^(B)when the wicked rise, man has to be sought out.

²⁸ When the wicked rise, men hide themselves;
But when they perish, the righteous increase.

² When the ^(A)righteous ^[a]increase, the people are glad,
But when a wicked man rules, people groan.
