13 ^aHe who covers his sins will not prosper,
But whoever confesses and forsakes them will have mercy.

But he who hardens his heart will fall into calamity.

15 ^aLike a roaring lion and a charging bear
^bIs a wicked ruler over poor people.

16 A ruler who lacks understanding is a great ^aoppressor,
But he who hates covetousness will prolong his days.

17 ^aA man burdened with bloodshed will flee into a pit;
Let no one help him.

18 Whoever walks blamelessly will be¹ saved,
But he who is perverse in his ways will suddenly fall.

19 ^aHe who tills his land will have plenty of bread,
But he who follows frivolity will have poverty enough!
