“The wicked flee when no man pursueth: but the righteous are bold as a lion.”
The wicked flee though no one pursues them, but the righteous are as bold as a lion—a statement of the psychological effect of conscience, establishing that the guilty feel pursued by their own guilt while the righteous are free and confident. The theological significance involves the principle of the freedom that comes from clear conscience.
