Proverbs 28:1-4

Proverbs 28:1-4 CSB

The wicked flee when no one is pursuing them,  but the righteous are as bold as a lion.  When a land is in rebellion, it has many rulers,  but with a discerning and knowledgeable person, it endures. A destitute leader  who oppresses the poor is like a driving rain that leaves no food.  Those who reject the law praise the wicked,  but those who keep the law pit themselves against them.
