3 Honesty guides good people; dishonesty destroys treacherous people.
3 The (A)integrity of the upright will lead them,But the (B)crookedness of the treacherous will destroy them.
6 The godliness of good people rescues them; the ambition of treacherous people traps them.
6 The righteousness of the upright will deliver them,But the treacherous will (A)be captured by their own desire.
18 The wicked are punished in place of the godly, and traitors in place of the honest.
18 The wicked is a (A)ransom for the righteous,And the (B)treacherous is in the place of the upright.
12 The Lord preserves those with knowledge, but he ruins the plans of the treacherous.
12 The eyes of Yahweh guard knowledge,But He subverts the words of the treacherous one.
