The wicked flee when no man pursueth; But the righteous are bold as a lion.
The wicked flee when no man pursueth: But the righteous are bold as a lion.
THE WICKED flee when no man pursues them, but the [uncompromisingly] righteous are bold as a lion. [Lev. 26:17, 36; Ps. 53:5.]
The wicked run away even though no one pursues them, but the righteous are as confident as a lion.
The impious flees, though no one pursues. But the just, like a confident lion, shall be without dread.
