But the blameless in their ways are His delight.

²⁰An abomination of Yahweh are the crooked of heart,^[a]
but his delight are those with blameless ways.^[b]

Proverbs 11:20 Literally “blameless ones of ways”

¹⁰^(A)Whoever causes the upright to go astray in an evil way,
He himself will fall into his own pit;
^(B)But the blameless will inherit good.

into his pits he will fall.
But as for the blameless, they will inherit good.
