Proverbs 24:22

Compare all

20 For there will be no prospect for the evil man;
The lamp of the wicked will be put out.

21 My son, ^afear the Lord and the king;
Do not associate with those given to change;

22 For their calamity will rise suddenly,
And who knows the ruin those two can bring?

24 ^aHe who says to the wicked, “You are righteous,”
Him the people will curse;
Nations will abhor him.
