6 Those who do right are saved by their righteousness,but the untrustworthy are caught by their own desires.
7 When the wicked die, their hope perishes.Yes, any hope based on money perishes.
8 The righteous are saved from distress,and the wicked take their place.
9 The godless destroy their neighbors by their words,but the righteous are saved by their knowledge.
10 When the righteous succeed, a city rejoices;when the wicked perish, there are shouts of joy.
11 A city is honored by the blessing of the virtuous;it is destroyed by the words of the wicked.
12 Whoever despises their neighbor lacks sense;a sensible person keeps quiet.
