Proverbs 11:6-8

Expanded Bible

⁶ ·Doing right [Righteousness] brings freedom to ·honest people [people with integrity],
but those who are not trustworthy will be caught by their own desires.

⁷ When the wicked die, hope ·dies with them [perishes];
their hope in riches ·will come to nothing [perishes].

⁸ The ·good [righteous] person is saved from ·trouble [distress];
it comes to the wicked instead.
