Proverbs 28:13

All About Life

¹² When the righteous rejoice, there is great glory, but when the wicked rise, the sane man hides himself. ¹³ He who conceals his transgressions will not prosper,
But he who confesses and forsakes them will find compassion.
¹⁴ Blessed is the man that fears God always, but he that hardens his heart shall fall into evil.
