1. The wicked man fleeth, when no man pursueth: but the just, bold as a lion, shall be without dread.
2. For the sine of the land many are the princes thereof: and for the wisdom of a man, and the knowledge of those things that are said, the life of the prince shall be prolonged.
3. A poor man that oppresseth the poor, is like a violent shower, which bringeth a famine.
4. They that forsake the law, praise the wicked man: they that keep it, are incensed against him.
