6 The righteousness of the upright will deliver them,
But the unfaithful will be caught by their lust.
But the unfaithful will be caught by their lust.
9 The hypocrite with his mouth destroys his neighbor,
But through knowledge the righteous will be delivered.
But through knowledge the righteous will be delivered.
10 aWhen it goes well with the righteous, the city rejoices;
And when the wicked perish, there is jubilation.
And when the wicked perish, there is jubilation.
11 By the blessing of the upright the city is aexalted,
But it is overthrown by the mouth of the wicked.
But it is overthrown by the mouth of the wicked.
