³⁴ Righteousness exalts a nation,
But sin is a disgrace to any people.

⁶ Great wealth is in the house of the ^(A)righteous,
But trouble is in the income of the wicked.

⁹ The way of the wicked is an abomination to the Lord,
But He loves the one who ^(A)pursues righteousness.

⁷ When a person’s ways are pleasing to the Lord,
He ^(A)causes even his enemies to make peace with him.

¹³ One who ^(A)returns evil for good,
^(B)Evil will not depart from his house.

³ When a wicked person comes, contempt also comes,
And with dishonor comes taunting.

³ The ^(A)foolishness of a person ruins his way,
And his heart ^(B)rages against the Lord.
