    but the innocent travel the straight course they have laid.

¹² The right-living understands how evildoers operate;
    he subverts them and ruins their plans.

¹⁵ When justice is done, those who are in the right celebrate,
    but those who make trouble are terrified.

¹⁸ The wicked become a ransom for those who live right,
    and the faithless pay the penalty for their treachery against the upright.

²¹ Whoever pursues justice and treats others with kindness
    discovers true life marked by integrity and respect.

²⁹ The wicked wears a defiant face,
    but the right-living plans his path.
