^31 (A)Do not envy the oppressor,
And choose none of his ways;
³² For the perverse person is an abomination to the Lord,
^(B)But His secret counsel is with the upright.

⁷ The violence of the wicked will ^[a]destroy them,
Because they refuse to do justice.

²⁹ A wicked man hardens his face,
But as for the upright, he ^[a]establishes his way.
