1. The wicked flee when no man pursueth: but the righteous are bold as a lion.
2. For the transgression of a land many are the princes thereof: but by men of understanding and knowledge the state thereof shall be prolonged.
3. A needy man that oppresseth the poor is like a sweeping rain which leaveth no food.
4. They that forsake the law praise the wicked: but such as keep the law contend with them.
5. Evil men understand not judgment: but they that seek the Lord understand all things.
