²A ^agood man will obtain favor from Yahweh,But a man of evil schemes He will condemn.³A man will ^anot be established by wickedness,But the root of the ^brighteous will not be shaken.

⁵The thoughts of the righteous are just,But the guidance of the wicked is deceitful.

⁷The ^awicked are overthrown and are no more,But the ^bhouse of the righteous will stand.

¹⁰A ^arighteous man knows the value of the life of his animal,But even the compassion of the wicked is cruel.

¹²The ^awicked man desires a stronghold of evil men,But the root of the righteous ^bgives fruit.¹³The snare of an evil man is in the transgression of his lips,But the ^arighteous man will come out from distress.

²¹^aNo misfortune befalls the righteous,But the wicked are filled with calamity.

²⁶The righteous is a guide to his neighbor,But the way of the wicked makes them wander about.

²⁸^aIn the path of righteousness is life,And in its pathway there is no death.
