20:028:002 For the transgression of a land many are the princes thereof: but by a man of understanding and knowledge the state thereof shall be prolonged.
20:028:003 A poor man that oppresseth the poor is like a sweeping rain
which leaveth no food.
20:028:004 They that forsake the law praise the wicked: but such as keep
the law contend with them.
20:028:005 Evil men understand not judgment: but they that seek the LORD
understand all things.
20:028:006 Better is the poor that walketh in his uprightness, than he
that is perverse in his ways, though he be rich.
20:028:007 Whoso keepeth the law is a wise son: but he that is a
companion of riotous men shameth his father.
20:028:008 He that by usury and unjust gain increaseth his substance, he
shall gather it for him that will pity the poor.
20:028:009 He that turneth away his ear from hearing the law, even his
prayer shall be abomination.
20:028:010 Whoso causeth the righteous to go astray in an evil way, he shall fall himself into his own pit: but the upright shall have good things in possession.
20:028:011 The rich man is wise in his own conceit; but the poor that
hath understanding searcheth him out.
