Proverbs 21:6-8

New American Standard Bible 1995

⁶ The ^(A)acquisition of treasures by a lying tongue
Is a fleeting vapor, the ^[a]pursuit of ^(B)death.
⁷ The violence of the wicked will drag them away,
Because they ^(C)refuse to act with justice.
⁸ The way of a guilty man is ^(D)crooked,
But as for the pure, his conduct is upright.
