Proverbs 11:7-9

The Voice

⁷ When wrongdoers die, their hopes die with them.
    Their great expectations vanish into nothing more than a dream.
⁸ Those who do right are pulled from trouble;
    it falls on wrongdoers instead who are left to sink in their own problems.
⁹ The words of the godless ruin those close to them,
    but through insight the right-living are spared.
