In context
15 As a roaring lion, and a ranging bear, So is a wicked ruler over a poor people.
16 The prince that lacketh understanding is also a great oppressor; But he that hateth covetousness shall prolong his days.
17 A man that is laden with the blood of any person Shall flee unto the pit; let no man stay him.
18 Whoso walketh uprightly shall be delivered; But he that is perverse in his ways shall fall at once.
19 He that tilleth his land shall have plenty of bread; But he that followeth after vain persons shall have poverty enough.
20 A faithful man shall abound with blessings; But he that maketh haste to be rich shall not be unpunished.
21 To have respect of persons is not good; Neither that a man should transgress for a piece of bread.
