Proverbs 11:5-7

World English Bible

⁵ The righteousness of the blameless will direct his way,
    but the wicked shall fall by his own wickedness.
⁶ The righteousness of the upright shall deliver them,
    but the unfaithful will be trapped by evil desires.
⁷ When a wicked man dies, hope perishes,
    and expectation of power comes to nothing.
