New Testament

Proverbs 28:14-19 God's Word Translation (GW)

14. Blessed is the one who is always fearful ⌊of sin⌋,but whoever is hard-hearted falls into disaster.

15. ⌊Like⌋ a roaring lion and a charging bear,⌊so⌋ a wicked ruler is a threat to poor people.

16. A leader without understanding taxes ⌊his people⌋ heavily,but those who hate unjust gain will live longer.

17. A person burdened with the guilt of murderwill be a fugitive down to his grave.No one will help him.

18. Whoever lives honestly will be safe.Whoever lives dishonestly will fall all at once.

19. Whoever works his land will have plenty to eat.Whoever chases unrealistic dreams will have plenty of nothing.
