4 Riches profit not in the day of wrath: but righteousness delivereth from death.
5 The righteousness of the perfect shall direct his way: but the wicked shall fall by his own wickedness.
6 The righteousness of the upright shall deliver them: but they that deal treacherously shall be taken in their own mischief.
7 When a wicked man dieth his expectation shall perish: and the hope of iniquity perisheth.
8 The righteous is delivered out of trouble, and the wicked cometh in his stead.
9 With his mouth the godless man destroyeth his neighbour: but through knowledge shall the righteous be delivered.
10 When it goeth well with the righteous, the city rejoiceth: and when the wicked perish, there is shouting.
