A man weighed down by another’s blood will be a fugitive to the pit; let no one hold him up.
In context
15A roaring lion and a charging bear—so is a wicked ruler over a helpless people. 16A leader without understanding is a great oppressor, but whoever hates unjust gain will lengthen his days. 17A man weighed down by another’s blood will be a fugitive to the pit; let no one hold him up. 18Whoever walks in integrity will be saved, but whoever is crooked in his ways will fall all at once. 19Whoever works his land will have plenty of bread, but whoever chases empty things will have plenty of poverty.
