Proverbs 28:15-17

Prov.28.15-Prov.28.17

15Like a roaring lion or a charging bear is a wicked ruler over a helpless people. 16A tyrannical ruler practices extortion, but one who hates ill-gotten gain will enjoy a long reign. 17Anyone tormented by the guilt of murder will seek refuge in the grave; let no one hold them back.
