Proverbs Capítulo 28

28 : 1 A wicked man flees when no man pursues, but the righteous are bold as a lion.

28 : 3 A needy man who oppresses the poor is a sweeping rain which leaves no food.

28 : 4 Those who forsake the law praise the wicked, but such as keep the law contend with them.

28 : 5 Evil men do not understand justice, but those who seek Jehovah understand all things.

28 : 6 Better is the poor man who walks in his integrity, than he who is perverse in his ways, though he be rich.

28 : 7 He who keeps the law is a wise son, but he who is a companion of gluttons shames his father.

28 : 8 He who augments his substance by interest and increase, gathers it for him who has pity on the poor.

28 : 9 He who turns away his ear from hearing the law, even his prayer is an abomination.

28 : 10 He who causes the upright to go astray in an evil way, he shall fall himself into his own pit. But the perfect shall inherit good.

28 : 11 The rich man is wise in his own conceit, but a poor man who has understanding searches him out.

28 : 13 He who covers his transgressions shall not prosper, but he who confesses and forsakes them shall obtain mercy.

28 : 14 Happy is the man who fears always, but he who hardens his heart shall fall into mischief.

28 : 15 A roaring lion, and a ranging bear, is a wicked ruler over a poor people.

28 : 16 The ruler who lacks understanding is also a great oppressor, but he who hates covetousness shall prolong his days.

28 : 17 A man who is laden with the blood of any person shall flee to the pit. Let no man stay him.

28 : 20 A faithful man shall abound with blessings, but he who makes haste to be rich shall not be unpunished.

28 : 21 To have respect of persons is not good, nor that a man should transgress for a piece of bread.

28 : 22 He who has an evil eye hastens after riches, and does not know that want shall come upon him.

28 : 23 He who rebukes a man shall afterward find more favor than he who flatters with the tongue.

28 : 24 He who robs his father or his mother, and says, It is no transgression, the same is the companion of a destroyer.

28 : 25 He who is of a greedy spirit stirs up strife, but he who puts his trust in Jehovah shall be made fat.

28 : 26 He who trusts in his own heart is a fool, but he who walks wisely, he shall be delivered.

28 : 27 He who gives to the poor shall not lack, but he who hides his eyes shall have many a curse.

28 : 28 When the wicked rise, men hide themselves, but when they perish, the righteous increase.
