Proverbs 11
Proverbs 11 contrasts the blessings of the righteous and upright—such as integrity guiding them, righteousness delivering from death, and generosity prospering—with the destruction facing the wicked, including being trapped by lust, overthrown by their mouths, and pursuing evil to their own death.[1][2][4]
