Proverbs 28:13

All About Life

¹² When the righteous triumph, there is great glory; But when the wicked rise, men hide themselves. ¹³ He that covereth his transgressions shall not prosper: But whoso confesseth and forsaketh them shall obtain mercy. ¹⁴ Happy is the man that feareth alway; But he that hardeneth his heart shall fall into mischief.
