Proverbs 21:8

The way of a guilty man is perverse,

But as for the pure, his work is upright.

Proverbs 21:12

The righteous one considers the house of the wicked,

Turning the wicked to ruin.

To do justice is pleasure for the righteous,

But is ruin to the workers of iniquity.

The wicked is a ransom for the righteous,

And the treacherous is in the place of the upright.

He who pursues righteousness and lovingkindness

Finds life, righteousness, and glory.

A wicked man displays a brazen face,

But as for the upright, he establishes his way.
