15 As a roaring lion and a raging bear, so is a wicked ruler over the poor. Like a roaring lion or a charging bear is a wicked ruler over a poor people. Like a roaring lion or a charging bear is a wicked ruler over a helpless people.
16 A ruler who lacks understanding is also a great oppressor; but he who hates deceit shall prolong his life. A ruler who lacks understanding is a cruel oppressor, but he who hates unjust gain will prolong his days. A tyrannical ruler practices extortion, but one who hates ill-gotten gain will enjoy a long reign.
