Proverbs 28:2

By the transgression of a land many are its princes,

But by a man who understands, who knows, so it endures.

Proverbs 28:12

When the righteous exult, there is great honor,

But when the wicked rise, man has to be sought out.

Like a roaring lion and a rushing bear

Is a wicked ruler over a poor people.

A leader who lacks discernment abounds in oppressions,

But he who hates greedy gain will prolong his days.

When the wicked rise, men hide themselves;

But when they perish, the righteous increase.
