Proverbs 11:18-21
New American Standard Bible
18 A wicked person earns deceptive wages,
But one who (A)sows righteousness gets a true reward.
19 One who is steadfast in (B)righteousness attains life,
But (C)one who pursues evil attains his own death.
20 The perverse in heart are an abomination to the Lord,
But the (D)blameless in their [a]walk are His (E)delight.
21 [b]Be assured, the evil person will not go unpunished,
But the [c]descendants of the righteous will be rescued.
