    but dishonesty ruins the treacherous.

⁶ Those who do right are saved by their righteousness,
    but the untrustworthy are caught by their own desires.

¹¹ A city is honored by the blessing of the virtuous;
    it is destroyed by the words of the wicked.

⁹ Fools mock a compensation offering,
    but favor is with those who do right.

¹¹ The house of the wicked is destroyed,
    but the tent flourishes for those who do right.

⁸ The Lord detests the sacrifices of the wicked,
    but favors the prayers of those who do right.

¹⁹ The path of the lazy is like a hedge of thorns,
    but the way of those who do right is a clear road.

¹⁷ The road of those who do right turns away from evil;
    those who protect their path guard their lives.
