Proverbs 28:12-14

Complete Jewish Bible

¹² When the just are triumphant, there is great rejoicing,
    but when the wicked rise up, people hide.

¹³ He who conceals his sins will not succeed;
    he who confesses and abandons them will gain mercy.

¹⁴ Happy the person who is never without fear,
    but he who hardens his heart will fall into misfortune.
