Proverbs 11:18-21
Modern English Version
18 The wicked works a deceitful work,
but to him who sows righteousness will be a sure reward.
19 As righteousness tends to life,
so he who pursues evil pursues it to his own death.
20 Those who are of a perverse heart are abomination to the Lord,
but such as are upright in their way are His delight.
21 Though be assured, the wicked will not be unpunished,
but the posterity of the righteous will be delivered.
Proverbs 11:18-21

18 The wicked man does deceptive work,
But (A)he who sows righteousness will have a sure reward.
19 As righteousness leads to (B)life,
So he who pursues evil pursues it to his own (C)death.
20 Those who are of a perverse heart are an abomination to the Lord,
But the blameless in their ways are His delight.
21 (D)Though they join [a]forces, the wicked will not go unpunished;
But (E)the posterity of the righteous will be delivered.
