King James Version
“The righteousness of the perfect shall direct his way: but the wicked shall fall by his own wickedness.”
Context
2pride cometh, then cometh shame: but with the lowly wisdom.
3The integrity of the upright shall guide them: but the perverseness of transgressors shall destroy them.
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 naughtiness.
7When a wicked man dieth, expectation shall perish: and the hope of unjust perisheth.
8The righteous is delivered out of trouble, and the wicked cometh in his stead.
