³³ The ^(A)curse of Yahweh is on the house of the wicked one,
But He ^(B)blesses the abode of the righteous.

¹⁸ But the ^(A)path of the righteous is like the ^(B)light of dawn,
That ^(C)shines brighter and brighter until the ^(D)fullness of day.

¹¹ By the blessing of the upright a city is raised up,
But by the mouth of the wicked it is torn down.

³⁰ The fruit of the righteous is ^(A)a tree of life,
And ^(B)he who is wise ^[a]wins souls.
³¹ If ^(C)the righteous will be repaid in the earth,
How much more the wicked and the sinner!

^21 (A)Evil pursues sinners,
But the ^(B)righteous are repaid with good.

² He who ^(A)walks in his uprightness fears Yahweh,
But he who is ^(B)devious in his ways despises Him.

⁸ The ^(A)sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination to Yahweh,
But ^(B)the prayer of the upright is His delight.

¹⁹ The way of the sluggard is as a hedge of thorns,
But the path of the upright is a highway.

²⁹ Yahweh is ^(A)far from the wicked,
But He ^(B)hears the prayer of the righteous.

¹³ Righteous lips are the delight of kings,
And he who speaks uprightly is loved.
