Proverbs 21:6-8
English Standard Version

6 (A)The getting of treasures by a lying tongue
    is a (B)fleeting (C)vapor and a (D)snare of death.[a]
7 The violence of the wicked will (E)sweep them away,
    because they refuse to do what is just.
8 The way of the guilty (F)is crooked,
    but the conduct of the pure is upright.
