Proverbs 17:26

Also to punish the just is not good, nor to strike princes for equity.

Also to punish the righteous is not good, Nor to flog officials for their integrity.

Also to punish the righteous is not good, `Nor' to smite the noble for `their' uprightness.

Also, to fine the righteous is not good, To smite nobles for uprightness.

It is surely not good to punish the innocent or to flog a noble for his honesty.
