| 15 | A growling lion, and a ranging bear, || [Is] the wicked ruler over a poor people. | 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 leader lacking understanding multiplies oppressions, || Whoever is hating dishonest gain prolongs days. | 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. | |
