Proverbs 11:8-10

New American Standard Bible 1995

⁸ The righteous is delivered from trouble,
But the wicked ^[a]takes his place.
⁹ With his ^(A)mouth the godless man destroys his neighbor,
But through knowledge the ^(B)righteous will be delivered.
¹⁰ When it ^(C)goes well with the righteous, the city rejoices,
And when the wicked perish, there is joyful shouting.
