Proverbs 29:26
“Many seek the ruler’s favour; but every man’s judgment cometh from the Lord.”
Whoso is partner with a thief hateth his own soul: he heareth cursing, and bewrayeth it not.
The fear of man bringeth a snare: but whoso putteth his trust in the Lord shall be safe.
Many seek the ruler’s favour; but every man’s judgment cometh from the Lord.
An unjust man is an abomination to the just: and he that is upright in the way is abomination to the wicked.
