²¹ For the upright will dwell in the land.
    The perfect will remain in it.

³² For the perverse is an abomination to Yahweh,
    but his friendship is with the upright.

³ The integrity of the upright shall guide them,
    but the perverseness of the treacherous shall destroy them.

⁶ The righteousness of the upright shall deliver them,
    but the unfaithful will be trapped by evil desires.

¹¹ By the blessing of the upright, the city is exalted,
    but it is overthrown by the mouth of the wicked.
