The integrity of the upright guides them, but the perversity of traitors shall destroy them.

The righteousness of the perfect shall make his way right, but the wicked shall fall by his own wickedness.

The righteousness of the upright shall deliver them, but traitors shall be taken in their lust.

He who walks uprightly, and works righteousness, and speaks the truth in his heart;

Let integrity and uprightness preserve me; for I have waited upon You.

i1 [A Psalm of David.] i0 par Judge me, O Jehovah, for I have walked in my integrity. I have trusted also in Jehovah; I shall not slip.

His own iniquities shall capture the wicked, and he shall be held with the cords of his sin.

The righteous wisely considers the house of the wicked, subverting the wicked for their evil.

For he sacrificed to the gods of Damascus which had struck him, saying, Because the gods of the kings of Syria help them, I will sacrifice to them that they may help me. But they were the ruin of him and of all Israel.

Let not a man who speaks evil be established in the earth; evil shall hunt the violent man to overthrow him.
