American Standard Version of 1901
Versliste
For the transgression of a land many are the princes thereof;But by {Or, a man}men of understanding and knowledge the state thereof shall be prolonged.
A needy man that oppresseth the poorIs like a sweeping rain {Hebrew: without food.}which leaveth no food.
They that forsake the law praise the wicked;But such as keep the law contend with them.
Evil men understand not justice;But they that seek Jehovah understand all things.
