As a roaringH5098 lionH738, and a rangingH8264 bearH1677; so is a wickedH7563 rulerH4910 over the poorH1800 peopleH5971.
The princeH5057 that wantethH2638 understandingH8394 is also a greatH7227 oppressorH4642: but he that hatethH8130 covetousnessH1215 shall prolongH748 his daysH3117.
In the firstH2298 yearH8140 of BelshazzarH1113 kingH4430 of BabylonH895 DanielH1841 hadH2370 a dreamH2493 and visionsH2376 of his headH7217 uponH5922 his bedH4903: thenH116 he wroteH3790 the dreamH2493, and toldH560 the sumH7217 of the mattersH4406. {had: Cald. saw} {matters: or, words}
DanielH1841 spakeH6032 and saidH560, I sawH2370+H1934 in my visionH2376 byH5974 nightH3916, and, beholdH718, the fourH703 windsH7308 of the heavenH8065 stroveH1519 upon the greatH7229 seaH3221.
And fourH703 greatH7260 beastsH2423 came upH5559 fromH4481 the seaH3221, diverseH8133 oneH1668 fromH4481 anotherH1668.
The firstH6933 was like a lionH744, and had eagle'sH5403 wingsH1611: I beheldH1934+H2370 tillH5705 the wingsH1611 thereof were pluckedH4804, and it was lifted upH5191 fromH4481 the earthH772, and made standH6966 uponH5922 the feetH7271 as a manH606, and a man'sH606 heartH3825 was givenH3052 to it. {and it: or, wherewith it}
And beholdH718 anotherH317 beastH2423, a secondH8578, likeH1821 to a bearH1678, and it raised upH6966 itself on oneH2298 sideH7859, and it had threeH8532 ribsH5967 in the mouthH6433 of it betweenH997 the teethH8128 of it: and they saidH560 thusH3652 unto it, AriseH6966, devourH399 muchH7690 fleshH1321. {it raised…: or, it raised up one dominion}
AfterH870 thisH1836 I beheldH1934+H2370, and loH718 anotherH317, like a leopardH5245, which had uponH5922 the backH1355 of it fourH703 wingsH1611 of a fowlH5776; the beastH2423 had also fourH703 headsH7217; and dominionH7985 was givenH3052 to it.
AfterH870 thisH1836 I sawH1934+H2370 in the nightH3916 visionsH2376, and beholdH718 a fourthH7244 beastH2423, dreadfulH1763 and terribleH574, and strongH8624 exceedinglyH3493; and it had greatH7260 ironH6523 teethH8128: it devouredH399 and brake in piecesH1855, and stampedH7512 the residueH7606 with the feetH7271 of it: and itH1932 was diverseH8133 fromH4481 allH3606 the beastsH2423 that were beforeH6925 it; and it had tenH6236 hornsH7162.
I consideredH1934+H7920 the hornsH7162, and, beholdH431, there came upH5559 amongH997 them anotherH317 littleH2192 hornH7162, beforeH6925+H4481 whom there were threeH8532 ofH4481 the firstH6933 hornsH7162 plucked up by the rootsH6132: and, beholdH431, in thisH1668 hornH7162 were eyesH5870 like the eyesH5870 of manH606, and a mouthH6433 speakingH4449 great thingsH7260.
So I returnedH7725, and consideredH7200 all the oppressionsH6217 that are doneH6213 under the sunH8121: and behold the tearsH1832 of such as were oppressedH6231, and they had no comforterH5162; and on the sideH3027 of their oppressorsH6231 there was powerH3581; but they had no comforterH5162. {side: Heb. hand}
And DavidH1732 saidH559 unto SaulH7586, Thy servantH5650 keptH7462 his father'sH1 sheepH6629, and there cameH935 a lionH738, and a bearH1677, and tookH5375 a lambH7716+H2089 out of the flockH5739: {lamb: or, kid}
And I went outH3318 afterH310 him, and smoteH5221 him, and deliveredH5337 it out of his mouthH6310: and when he aroseH6965 against me, I caughtH2388 him by his beardH2206, and smoteH5221 him, and slewH4191 him.
Thy servantH5650 slewH5221 both the lionH738 and the bearH1677: and this uncircumcisedH6189 PhilistineH6430 shall be as oneH259 of them, seeing he hath defiedH2778 the armiesH4634 of the livingH2416 GodH430.
The wickedH7563 fleeH5127 when no man pursuethH7291: but the righteousH6662 are boldH982 as a lionH3715.
For the transgressionH6588 of a landH776 manyH7227 are the princesH8269 thereof: but by a manH120 of understandingH995 and knowledgeH3045 the stateH3651 thereof shall be prolongedH748. {by…: or, by men of understanding and wisdom shall they likewise be prolonged}
A poorH7326 manH1397 that oppressethH6231 the poorH1800 is like a sweepingH5502 rainH4306 which leaveth no foodH3899. {which…: Heb. without food}

BetterH2896 is the poorH7326 that walkethH1980 in his uprightnessH8537, than he that is perverseH6141 in his waysH1870, though he be richH6223.
Whoso keepethH5341 the lawH8451 is a wiseH995 sonH1121: but he that is a companionH7462 of riotousH2151 men shamethH3637 his fatherH1. {is a companion…: or, feedeth gluttons}
He that by usuryH5392 and unjust gainH8636 increasethH7235 his substanceH1952, he shall gatherH6908 it for him that will pityH2603 the poorH1800. {unjust…: Heb. by increase}
He that turneth awayH5493 his earH241 from hearingH8085 the lawH8451, even his prayerH8605 shall be abominationH8441.
Whoso causeth the righteousH3477 to go astrayH7686 in an evilH7451 wayH1870, he shall fallH5307 himself into his own pitH7816: but the uprightH8549 shall have goodH2896 things in possessionH5157.
The richH6223 manH376 is wiseH2450 in his own conceitH5869; but the poorH1800 that hath understandingH995 searcheth him outH2713. {own…: Heb. eyes}
When righteousH6662 men do rejoiceH5970, there is greatH7227 gloryH8597: but when the wickedH7563 riseH6965, a manH120 is hiddenH2664. {hidden: or, sought for}
He that coverethH3680 his sinsH6588 shall not prosperH6743: but whoso confessethH3034 and forsakethH5800 them shall have mercyH7355.
HappyH835 is the manH120 that fearethH6342 alwayH8548: but he that hardenethH7185 his heartH3820 shall fallH5307 into mischiefH7451.
As a roaringH5098 lionH738, and a rangingH8264 bearH1677; so is a wickedH7563 rulerH4910 over the poorH1800 peopleH5971.
The princeH5057 that wantethH2638 understandingH8394 is also a greatH7227 oppressorH4642: but he that hatethH8130 covetousnessH1215 shall prolongH748 his daysH3117.
A manH120 that doeth violenceH6231 to the bloodH1818 of any personH5315 shall fleeH5127 to the pitH953; let no man stayH8551 him.
Whoso walkethH1980 uprightlyH8549 shall be savedH3467: but he that is perverseH6140 in his waysH1870 shall fallH5307 at onceH259.
He that tillethH5647 his landH127 shall have plentyH7646 of breadH3899: but he that followethH7291 after vainH7386 persons shall have poverty enoughH7389.
A faithfulH530 manH376 shall aboundH7227 with blessingsH1293: but he that maketh hasteH213 to be richH6238 shall not be innocentH5352. {innocent: or, unpunished}
To have respectH5234 of personsH6440 is not goodH2896: for for a pieceH6595 of breadH3899 that manH1397 will transgressH6586.
HeH376 that hastethH926 to be richH1952 hath an evilH7451 eyeH5869, and considerethH3045 not that povertyH2639 shall comeH935 upon him. {hasteth…: or, hath and evil eye hasteth to be rich}
He that rebukethH3198 a manH120 afterwardsH310 shall findH4672 more favourH2580 than he that flatterethH2505 with the tongueH3956.
Whoso robbethH1497 his fatherH1 or his motherH517, and saithH559, It is no transgressionH6588; the same is the companionH2270 of a destroyerH376+H7843. {a destroyer: Heb. a man destroying}
He that is of a proudH7342 heartH5315 stirreth upH1624 strifeH4066: but he that putteth his trustH982 in the LORDH3068 shall be made fatH1878.
He that trustethH982 in his own heartH3820 is a foolH3684: but whoso walkethH1980 wiselyH2451, he shall be deliveredH4422.
He that givethH5414 unto the poorH7326 shall not lackH4270: but he that hidethH5956 his eyesH5869 shall have manyH7227 a curseH3994.
When the wickedH7563 riseH6965, menH120 hideH5641 themselves: but when they perishH6, the righteousH6662 increaseH7235.
Moreover thou shalt provideH2372 out of all the peopleH5971 ableH2428 menH582, such as fearH3373 GodH430, menH582 of truthH571, hatingH8130 covetousnessH1215; and placeH7760 such over them, to be rulersH8269 of thousandsH505, and rulersH8269 of hundredsH3967, rulersH8269 of fiftiesH2572, and rulersH8269 of tensH6235:
HeG3778 shall beG2071 greatG3173, andG2532 shall be calledG2564 the SonG5207 of the HighestG5310: andG2532 the LordG2962 GodG2316 shall giveG1325 unto himG846 the throneG2362 of hisG846 fatherG3962 DavidG1138:
AndG2532 he shall reignG936 overG1909 the houseG3624 of JacobG2384 forG1519 everG165; andG2532 of hisG846 kingdomG932 there shall beG2071 noG3756 endG5056.
