Proverbs 11:5-7

New American Standard Bible 1995

⁵ The ^(A)righteousness of the blameless will smooth his way,
But ^(B)the wicked will fall by his own wickedness.
⁶ The righteousness of the upright will deliver them,
But the treacherous will ^(C)be caught by their own greed.
⁷ When a wicked man dies, his ^(D)expectation will perish,
And the ^(E)hope of strong men perishes.
