⁵The ^(A)righteousness of the blameless will smooth his way,
But ^(B)the wicked will fall by his own wickedness.

Proverbs 11:5

Common English Bible

⁵The righteousness of the innocent makes their path straight,
but the wicked fall in their wickedness.

²⁰The perverse in heart are an abomination to the Lord,
But the ^(A)blameless in their ^[a]walk are His ^(B)delight.

²⁰The Lord detests a crooked heart,
but he favors those whose path is innocent.

¹⁰One who leads the upright astray in an evil way
Will ^(A)himself fall into his own pit,
But the ^(B)blameless will inherit good.

¹⁰Whoever misleads those who do right onto an evil path
will fall into their own pit,
but the blameless will inherit good things.
