Proverbs 14:26-28

EasyEnglish Bible

²⁶ Someone who respects and obeys the Lord knows that he will be safe.
    His family also will be in a safe place.
²⁷ If you respect and obey the Lord,
    that is like a spring of water that gives you life.
    It will keep you safe from death's traps.
²⁸ A king who rules many people will receive great honour.
    But a ruler with only a few people will have nothing in the end.
