Proverbs 28:4

They that forsake the law praise the wicked: but such as keep the law contend with them. They that forsake the law praise the wicked - naturally, as resembling themselves. By praises of the wicked one betrays what kind of man he is himself (; ).

But such as keep the law contend with them - (; .) The truly godly not only keep God's law, but "contend with them" who do not, and 'plead for truth' ().
