Proverbs 12:6-8

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

⁶ The words of the wicked are a deadly ambush,
    but the speech of the upright delivers them.
⁷ The wicked are overthrown and are no more,
    but the house of the righteous will stand.
⁸ One is commended for good sense,
    but a perverse mind is despised.
