4Riches profit not in the day of wrath: But righteousness delivereth from death.
5The righteousness of the perfect shall direct his way: But the wicked shall fall by his own wickedness.
6The righteousness of the upright shall deliver them: But transgressors shall be taken in their own naughtiness.
7When a wicked man dieth, his expectation shall perish: And the hope of unjust men perisheth.
8The righteous is delivered out of trouble, And the wicked cometh in his stead.
9A hypocrite with his mouth destroyeth his neighbour: But through knowledge shall the just be delivered.
10When it goeth well with the righteous, the city rejoiceth: And when the wicked perish, there is shouting.
11By the blessing of the upright the city is exalted: But it is overthrown by the mouth of the wicked.
