Proverbs 29:2-4
New Living Translation

2 When the godly are in authority, the people rejoice.
    But when the wicked are in power, they groan.

3 The man who loves wisdom brings joy to his father,
    but if he hangs around with prostitutes, his wealth is wasted.

4 A just king gives stability to his nation,
    but one who demands bribes destroys it.
