A good man will obtain favor from the Lord,
But He will condemn a man who devises evil.

“For he who finds me finds life
And obtains favor from the Lord.

The nations have sunk down in the pit which they have made;
In the net which they hid, their own foot has been caught.

It is well with the man who is gracious and lends;
He will maintain his cause in judgment.

“So they shall eat of the fruit of their own way
And be satiated with their own devices.

A heart that devises wicked plans,
Feet that run rapidly to evil,

No man has authority to restrain the wind with the wind, or authority over the day of death; and there is no discharge in the time of war, and evil will not deliver those who practice it.

No longer will the fool be called noble,
Or the rogue be spoken of as generous.

for he was a good man, and full of the Holy Spirit and of faith. And considerable numbers were brought to the Lord.

For one will hardly die for a righteous man; though perhaps for the good man someone would dare even to die.
