Proverbs 11:3-13

³People who are good are guided by doing what is honest; those who are not honest will be ruined because of the wrong things that they do.

⁴Your money will not help you on the day that God judges and punishes people; but if you live righteously, you will live a long time.

⁵When people are honest and good, that will ◄direct their paths/show them what is right for them to do►; but wicked people will experience disasters because of the evil things that they do.

⁶God rescues/protects righteous people because they ◄are honest/do what is right►, but those who ◄are treacherous/cannot be trusted► will be trapped because of their being greedy.

⁷When wicked people die, they cannot confidently expect to receive anything that is good; they expect that their money will help/save them, but it will not.

⁸Yahweh rescues righteous people from their troubles/difficulties; instead, it is the wicked who will have troubles.

⁹Godless people can ruin others by what they say MTY, but righteous people will be saved by their ◄own good sense/being wise►.

¹⁰When things go well for righteous people, the people in MTY their city are happy, and they shout joyfully when wicked people die.

¹¹When righteous people request God to bless a city, that city will become great, but cities are ruined by what wicked people say MTY.

¹²It is foolish to despise others; those who ◄have good sense/are wise► do not say anything to criticize others.

¹³Those who ◄spread gossip/tell bad things about others► will tell your secrets to others, but if there is someone whom you can trust, you can trust him to not tell your secrets to others.
