Proverbs 11:5-7
Lexham English Bible

5 The righteousness of the blameless will keep his ways straight,
    but the wicked will fall by his wickedness.
6 The righteousness of the upright will save them,
    but by a scheme the treacherous will be taken captive.
7 With the death of a wicked person, hope will die,
    and the expectation of the godless perishes.
