1. Evil people run even though no one is chasing them,but good people are as brave as a lion.
2. When a country is lawless, it has one ruler after another;but when it is led by a leader with understanding and knowledge, it continues strong.
3. Rulers who mistreat the poorare like a hard rain that destroys the crops.
4. Those who disobey what they have been taught praise the wicked,but those who obey what they have been taught are against them.
5. Evil people do not understand justice,but those who follow the Lord understand it completely.
