Proverbs 11:18-21
1599 Geneva Bible
18 The wicked worketh a deceitful work: but he that soweth righteousness, shall receive a sure reward.
19 As righteousness leadeth to life: so he that followeth evil, seeketh his own death.
20 They that are of a froward heart, are abomination to the Lord: but they that are upright in their way, are his delight.
21 [a]Though hand join in hand, the wicked shall not be unpunished: but the seed of the righteous shall escape.
