14  Where there is ^sno guidance, a people falls,

^sbut in an abundance of counselors there is safety.

34  Righteousness exalts a nation,

but sin is a reproach to any people.

2  When ^cthe righteous increase, the people rejoice,

but when ^dthe wicked rule, the people groan.

18  Where ^zthere is no prophetic vision the people ^acast off restraint,¹

but blessed is he who ^bkeeps the law.
