Proverbs 29:2, 8, 10, 16, 25 When the godly are in authority, the people rejoice. But when the wicked are in power, they groan. Mockers can get a whole town agitated, but the wise will calm anger. The bloodthirsty hate blameless people, but the upright seek to help them. When the wicked are in authority, sin flourishes, but the godly will live to see their downfall. Fearing people is a dangerous trap, but trusting the LORD means safety. | New Living Translation (NLT)
