Proverbs 21:7-31 - ESV - The violence of the wicked will sweep them away...

7 The violence of the wicked will ¹sweep them away, because they refuse to do what is just.

8 The way of the guilty ²is crooked, but the conduct of the pure is upright.

9 It is ³better to live in a corner of the housetop than in a house shared with a quarrelsome wife.

10 The soul of the wicked desires evil; his neighbor finds no mercy in his eyes.

11 When ⁴a scoffer is punished, the simple becomes wise; when a wise man is instructed, he gains knowledge.

12 The Righteous One ⁵observes the house of the wicked; he throws the wicked down to ruin.

13 ⁶Whoever closes his ear to the cry of the poor will himself call out and not be answered.

14 ⁷A gift in secret averts anger, and a concealed bribe,^a strong wrath.

15 When justice is done, it is a joy to the righteous ⁸but terror to evildoers.

16 One who wanders from the way of good sense ⁹will rest in the assembly of the dead.

17 Whoever loves pleasure will be a poor man; he who loves wine and oil will not be rich.

18 ¹⁰The wicked is a ¹¹ransom for the righteous, and the traitor for the upright.

19 It is ¹²better to live in a desert land than with a quarrelsome and fretful woman.

20 ¹³Precious treasure and oil are in a wise man's dwelling, but a foolish man ¹⁴devours it.

21 Whoever ¹⁵pursues righteousness and kindness will find ¹⁶life, righteousness, and honor.

22 ¹⁷A wise man scales the city of the mighty and brings down the stronghold in which they trust.

23 ¹⁸Whoever keeps his mouth and his tongue ¹⁹keeps himself out of ²⁰trouble.

24 ²¹"Scoffer" is the name of the arrogant, haughty man who acts with arrogant pride.

25 The desire of ²²the sluggard kills him, for his hands refuse to labor.

26 All day long he craves and craves, but the righteous ²³gives and does not hold back.

27 ²⁴The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination; how much more ²⁵when he brings it with evil intent.

28 ²⁶A false witness will perish, but the word of a man who hears will endure.

29 A wicked man puts on a bold face, but the upright ²⁷gives thought to^b his ways.

30 ²⁸No wisdom, no understanding, no counsel can avail against the LORD.

31 ²⁹The horse is made ready for the day of battle, but ³⁰the victory belongs to the LORD.
