3 The integrity of the upright shall guide them, But the perverseness of the treacherous shall destroy them.
4 Riches don`t profit in the day of wrath, But righteousness delivers from death.
5 The righteousness of the blameless will direct his way, But the wicked shall fall by his own wickedness.
6 The righteousness of the upright shall deliver them, But the unfaithful will be trapped by evil desires.
7 When a wicked man dies, hope perishes, And expectation of power comes to nothing.
8 The righteous is delivered out of trouble, And the wicked takes his place.
9 With his mouth the godless man destroys his neighbor, But the righteous will be delivered through knowledge.
