Proverbs 28:5


Proverbs 28:4 Proverbs 28:5 (KJV) Proverbs 28:6
They that forsake the law praise the wicked: but such as keep the law contend with them.
Evil men understand not judgment: but they that seek the LORD understand all [things].
Better [is] the poor that walketh in his uprightness, than [he that is] perverse [in his] ways, though he [be] rich.
