Proverbs 28
1 The wicked flee when none pursueth: but the righteous are bolde as a lyon.
कसैले नलखेट्दा पनि दुष्ट मानिसहरू भाग्छन्, तर धर्मी मानिसहरू जवान सिंहझैँ निर्भीक हुन्छन् ।
2 For the transgression of the land there are many princes thereof: but by a man of vnderstanding and knowledge a realme likewise endureth long.
देशको अधर्मको कारण त्यहाँ धेरै शासकहरू हुन्छन्, तर समझशक्ति र ज्ञान भएको मानिसले अमनचैन कायम राख्ने छ ।
