Proverbs 28:13-15

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

¹³ No one who conceals transgressions will prosper,
    but one who confesses and forsakes them will obtain mercy.
¹⁴ Happy is the one who is never without fear,
    but one who is hard-hearted will fall into calamity.
¹⁵ Like a roaring lion or a charging bear
    is a wicked ruler over a poor people.
