7The violence of the wicked shall sweep them away, Because they refuse to do justice.
8The way of him that is laden with guilt is exceeding crooked; But as for the pure, his work is right.
9It is better to dwell in the corner of the housetop, Than with a contentious woman in a wide house.
10The soul of the wicked desireth evil: His neighbor findeth no favor in his eyes.
11When the scoffer is punished, the simple is made wise; And when the wise is instructed, he receiveth knowledge.
12The righteous man considereth the house of the wicked, How the wicked are overthrown to their ruin.
