⁵ A righteous man hateth lying;
But a wicked man ^[a]is loathsome, and cometh to shame.
⁶ Righteousness guardeth ^[b]him that is upright in the way;
But wickedness overthroweth ^[c]the sinner.

⁹ The light of the righteous rejoiceth;
But the lamp of the wicked shall be put out.

²² A good man leaveth an inheritance to his children’s children;
And the wealth of the sinner is laid up for the righteous.

²⁵ The righteous eateth to the satisfying of his soul;
But the belly of the wicked shall want.
