Righteousness guards the one who lives with integrity, but wickedness overthrows the sinner.

The integrity of the upright guides them, but the crookedness of the unfaithful destroys them.

The righteousness of the blameless will make straight their way, but the wicked person will fall by his own wickedness.

He offered sacrifices to the gods of Damascus whom he thought had defeated him. He reasoned, "Since the gods of the kings of Damascus helped them, I will sacrifice to them so they will help me." But they caused him and all Israel to stumble.

Whoever lives a blameless life, does what is right, and speaks honestly.

May integrity and godliness protect me, for I rely on you!

By David. Vindicate me, O Lord, for I have integrity, and I trust in the Lord without wavering.

A slanderer will not endure on the earth; calamity will hunt down a violent man and strike him down.

The wicked will be captured by his own iniquities, and he will be held by the cords of his own sin.

The Righteous One considers the house of the wicked; he overthrows the wicked to their ruin.
