Have no fear of sudden danger, or of the storm which will come on evil-doers:

The Lord will not let the upright be in need of food, but he puts far from him the desire of the evil-doers.

The upright man will never be moved, but evil-doers will not have a safe resting-place in the land.

The lips of the upright man have knowledge of what is pleasing, but twisted are the mouths of evil-doers.

The purposes of upright men are right, but the designs of evil-doers are deceit.

Evil-doers are overturned and never seen again, but the house of upright men will keep its place.

An upright man has thought for the life of his beast, but the hearts of evil-doers are cruel.

The upright man is a guide to his neighbour, but the way of evil-doers is a cause of error to them.

Righteousness keeps safe him whose way is without error, but evil-doers are overturned by sin.

The upright man has food to the full measure of his desire, but there will be no food for the stomach of evil-doers.

A good-for-nothing witness makes sport of the judge's decision: and the mouth of evil-doers sends out evil like a stream.

A wise king puts evil-doers to flight, and makes their evil-doing come back on them.

By their violent acts the evil-doers will be pulled away, because they have no desire to do what is right.

The offering of evil-doers is disgusting: how much more when they give it with an evil purpose!

Do not be troubled because of evil-doers, or have envy of sinners:

Take away evil-doers from before the king, and the seat of his power will be made strong in righteousness.

Like a troubled fountain and a dirty spring, is an upright man who has to give way before evil-doers.

When the upright do well, there is great glory; but when evil-doers are lifted up, men do not let themselves be seen.

When evil-doers are lifted up, men take cover; but when destruction overtakes them, the upright are increased.

Men of blood are haters of the good man, and evil-doers go after his soul.

If a ruler gives attention to false words, all his servants are evil-doers.

An evil man is disgusting to the upright, and he who is upright is disgusting to evil-doers.

The heart of the upright gives thought to his answer; but from the mouth of the evil-doer comes a stream of evil things.

The desire of the evil-doer is fixed on evil: he has no kind feeling for his neighbour.

The memory of the upright is a blessing, but the name of the evil-doer will be turned to dust.

The mouth of the upright man is a fountain of life, but the mouth of the evil-doer is a bitter cup.

The work of the upright gives life: the increase of the evil-doer is a cause of sin.

The tongue of the upright man is like tested silver: the heart of the evil-doer is of little value.

The thing feared by the evil-doer will come to him, but the upright man will get his desire.

The fear of the Lord gives long life, but the years of the evil-doer will be cut short.

The hope of the upright man will give joy, but the waiting of the evil-doer will have its end in sorrow.

The righteousness of the good man will make his way straight, but the sin of the evil-doer will be the cause of his fall.

At the death of an upright man his hope does not come to an end, but the hope of the evil-doer comes to destruction.

By the blessing of the upright man the town is made great, but it is overturned by the mouth of the evil-doer.

Certainly the evil-doer will not go free from punishment, but the seed of the upright man will be safe.

The desire of the upright man is only for good, but wrath is waiting for the evil-doer.

If the upright man is rewarded on earth, how much more the evil-doer and the sinner!

In the road of righteousness is life, but the way of the evil-doer goes to death.

The upright man is a hater of false words: the evil-doer gets a bad name and is put to shame.

The offering of the evil-doer is disgusting to the Lord, but the prayer of the upright man is his delight.

The way of the evil-doer is disgusting to the Lord, but he who goes after righteousness is dear to him.

The curse of the Lord is on the house of the evil-doer, but his blessing is on the tent of the upright.

The evil-doer will be taken in the net of his crimes, and prisoned in the cords of his sin.

A good-for-nothing man is an evil-doer; he goes on his way causing trouble with false words;

Do not keep a secret watch, O evil-doer, against the fields of the upright man, or send destruction on his resting-place:

He who says to the evil-doer, You are upright, will be cursed by peoples and hated by nations.

Those who have no respect for the law give praise to the evil-doer; but such as keep the law are against him.

The upright man gives attention to the cause of the poor: the evil-doer gives no thought to it.

He who gives a decision for the evil-doer and he who gives a decision against the upright, are equally disgusting to the Lord.

When the evil-doer comes, a low opinion comes with him, and with the loss of honour comes shame.

To have respect for the person of the evil-doer is not good, or to give a wrong decision against the upright.

A high look and a heart of pride, *** of the evil-doer is sin.

The Upright One, looking on the house of the evil-doer, lets sinners be overturned to their destruction.

The evil-doer will be given as a price for the life of the good man, and the worker of deceit in the place of the upright.

The evil-doer makes his face hard, but as for the upright, he gives thought to his way.

By mercy and good faith evil-doing is taken away: and by the fear of the Lord men are turned away from evil.

The fear of the Lord is seen in hating evil: pride, a high opinion of oneself, the evil way, and the false tongue, are unpleasing to me.

If anyone gives back evil for good, evil will never go away from his house.

Nothing good comes to him whose heart is fixed on evil purposes: and he who has an evil tongue will come to trouble.

For their feet are running after evil, and they are quick to take a man's life.

But whoever gives ear to me will take his rest safely, living in peace without fear of evil.

He has salvation stored up for the upright, he is a breastplate to those in whom there is no evil;

Giving you salvation from the evil man, from those whose words are false;

Who take pleasure in wrongdoing, and have joy in the evil designs of the sinner;

Whose ways are not straight, and whose footsteps are turned to evil:
