Compare all

3 The integrity of the upright will guide ^athem,
But the perversity of the unfaithful will destroy them.

4 ^aRiches do not profit in the day of wrath,
But ^brighteousness delivers from death.

5 The righteousness of the blameless will¹ direct his way aright,
But the wicked will fall by his own ^awickedness.

6 The righteousness of the upright will deliver them,
But the unfaithful will be caught by their lust.

7 When a wicked man dies, his expectation will ^aperish,
And the hope of the unjust perishes.

8 ^aThe righteous is delivered from trouble,
And it comes to the wicked instead.
