until an arrow pierces his {entrails}, like a bird rushing into a snare, but he does not know that {it will cost him his life}.

May your heart not turn aside to her ways; do not stray into her path.

The righteous is delivered from trouble, but the wicked enters into it.

A messenger of wickedness will fall into trouble, but an envoy of the faithful [brings] healing.

The lot will be cast into the lap, but all of its decisions are from Yahweh.

He who is crooked of heart will not find goodness, and he who is perverse, by his tongue he will fall into calamity.

A tower of strength is the name of Yahweh; into him the righteous will run and be safe.

He who misleads the upright onto the way of evil, into his pits he will fall. But as for the blameless, they will inherit good.

Happy is the person who fears continuously, but he who is stubborn of heart, will fall into calamity.
